The Shadow Of A Black Crow Lyrics - 4th Street Feeling - Melissa Etheridge

I am levitating somewhere down the road 

With a price on my head and the shadow of a black crow 

He's been on my tail for close to three days 

Just a little souvenir of my wicked ways 

I would rather die fast than to ever live slow 

Father forgive me what my mother don't know 

The scratch marks on my soul 

From the shadow of a black crow 

I've got a box of reds and a bottle of the blues 

Comes a time in your life honey you've gotta choose 

My belly's on fire from the acid of the truth 

All the untold lies of my misspent youth

I would rather die fast than to ever live slow 

Father forgive me what my mother don't know 

The scratch marks on my soul 

From the shadow of a black crow 

It's pretty when you're young just a pity when you're old, yeah 

Am I running away or am I closer to home 

The lines and the signs and the miles go by 

No one ever bothered to even ask me why 

So I am disappearing into this road 

With a six pack of sorrow and the shadow of a black crow

I would rather die fast than to ever live slow 

Father forgive me what my mother don't know 

The scratch marks on my soul 

From the shadow of a black crow
