[shadows papa]

well,a gypsy lady once told me
son,you got the kind of soul that's gotta be free
it ain't what you want, it's just what you need
like a black bird baby you were born with wings


and as a crow flies, so do i
i can be gone in the blink of an eye
next town's never to hard to find
it's never that far as a crow flies


well, i set it down in tennessee and got a little juice
but i caught myself a case of them nashville blues
i met a little girl that tried to tie me down
so i pointed it to hollywood and put the hammer down


and as a crow flies, so do i
i can be gone in the blink of an eye
next town's never to hard to find
it's never that far as a crow flies


i live on the run, i love on the prowl
i never was much on hangin' around
i never look back,i never look down
i never thought once about turnin' around


and as a crow flies, so do i
i can be gone in the blink of an eye
next town's never to hard to find
it's never that far as a crow flies
