Текст песни Shadows In The Dark - Waylon

Momma tried to make this house a home
And daddy drove a truck, somebody always tell him where to go
We only saw him two times a week
Sometimes he needed days of sleep
But he was doing alright
They grew up poor, lived the best they could
Tried real hard, it didn′t do no good
So I took off on my own road
A different road than my daddy drove
I was doing alright

Like a full steaming train, hell-bent to lay my own tracks
Bring on the storms and the rain, ain't nothing holding me back
Can′t nothing tame this wild gypsy heart
I lie in my own way, I'm chasing shadows in the dark

My brother signed up, said "Yes Sir" to them stripes
Then wore his colours all brainwashed in the pride
And he came back all tired and mean, good days too few and far between
He says he's doing alright

Like a full steaming train, hell-bent to lay my own tracks
Bring on the storms and the rain, ain′t nothing holding me back
Can′t nothing tame this wild gypsy heart
I lie in my own way, I'm chasing shadows in the dark

Stories written in my blood, I was born and bound to ramble
The fire raging in my soul, burning both sides of the candle

Like a full steaming train, hell-bent to lay my own tracks
Bring on the storms and the rain, ain′t nothing holding me back
Can't nothing tame this wild gypsy heart
I lie in my own way, I′m chasing shadows in the dark

Chasing shadows in the dark
Chasing shadows in the dark
