Walking In the Shadow of the Blues
Whitesnake
Love Hunter

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
