from the songs album Live In The Heart Of The City
(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
