LONG TALL SHADOW WITH FIRE EYES

Well, here’s to the inner light that burned so brightly
Now he’s got his one-way ticket to the skyways
Let’s share a drink of gasoline and swallow fire
And bow down before the idol in that golden shrine
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow with fire eyes
With fire eyes

 

The Mad Rock’n’Roll Daddy may have done passed on
But his long tall shadow will linger on
Hear the ghost train riders moan his tunes
That leave you howling like a hound at the pale white moon
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow with fire eyes
With fire eyes

 

Well, he may have gone, leaving you in pains
Be sure his long tall shadow will always remain
And fill your heart with desires, strange and wild
And haunt your dreams in the dead of night
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow with fire eyes
With fire eyes
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow
The long tall shadow with fire eyes
With fire eyes
