don't look at my shadow

new york city years ago

tourists in the rain

singin' on the swing shift

for pennies

thinkin'bout the bayou

cajun river song

almost got my head broke

in texas

purple peacock honky-tonk

eunice

louisiana

bourbon whiskey free

son

just tune up the piano

workin' clubs in new orleans

bringin' down a dollar

college boys drink beer

and throw the bottles

it's been a long long long way

i got some more to go

don't look at my shadow

its behind me chorus

it's been a long long long way

in twenty years or so

thinkin'bout those times

might amuse me

l.a. forum sports arena

twenty thousand fans

glas ya come to listen i'm gomma

give you everything i can

i always had to play my music

play it best i could

hope you in the stands

can hear me good

california dreamin' nearly put me down for good

colorado rocky mountains saved my senses
