Whitesnake - Walking In The Shadow Of The Blues lyrics

(coverdale/marsden) I love the blues, They tell my story, If you don't feel it you can never understand So many times i thought about it And now i know just what it means to be a man Everyday i realize you can see it in my eyes I never wait, or hesitate. 'cos i love the life i live, I'm gonna live the life i choose, You gotta understand I'm walking in the shadow of the blues All of my life i've had a strange reputation, I've been the black sheep of the family all along I never know if in my heart i'm really guilty But, i've been accused of never knowing right from wrong Everyday i realize you can see it in my eyes I never wait, or hesitate. 'cos i love the life i live, I'm gonna live the life i choose, You gotta understand I'm walking in the shadow of the blues My father said you're crazy, He said what you gonna do? I left with my guitar and said I'll leave it up to you I'm gonna live the life i love And live the life i choose, And i'm walking in the shadow of the blues I love the blues, They tell my story, If you don't feel it i will tell you once again All of my life i've been caught up in a crossfire, 'cos i've been branded with the devil mark of cain Everyday i realize you can see it in my eyes I never wait, or hesitate. 'cos i love the life i live, I'm gonna live the life i choose, You gotta understand I'm walking in the shadow of the blues, I'm walking in the shadow of the blues
