Shadows In The Dark

[Intro] [Verse 1] Momma tried to make this house a home Daddy drove a truck Somebody always told 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 road A different road than my daddy drove I was doing alright [Chorus] Like a full steaming train Helping to lay my own track 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 [Verse 2] My brother signed up Said "Yes Sir" to them stripes War has colour all brainwashed in their pride And he came back all tired and mean Good days too few and far between He said he’s doing alright [Chorus] Like a full steaming train Helping to lay my own track 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 [Bridge] Stories written in my blood I was born and bound in Ramble   The fire raging in my soul Burning both sides of the candle [Chorus] Like a full steaming train Helping to lay my own track 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 [Outro] Chasing shadows in the dark Chasing shadows in the dark
