Walking in the Shadow of the Blues-Monsters of Rock

I love the blues, they tell my story If you don't feel it you can never understand So many times I've thought about it And now I know just what it means to be a man Everyday I realize, you can see it in my eyes I never wait, or hesitate 'Cause I love the life I live, I'm gonna live the life I choose You gotta understand I'm walking in the shadow of the blues All of my life I've had the same reputation I've been the black sheep of the family all along I never know if in my heart I'm really guilty But I've been accused of never knowing right from wrong Everyday I realize, you can see it in my eyes I never wait or hesitate 'Cause I love the life I live, gonna live the life I choose, yeah You gotta understand I'm walking in the shadow of the blues My father said you're crazy He said what you gonna do? I left with my guitar and said I'll leave it up to you I'm gonna live the life I love And live the life I choose, yeah And I'm walking in the shadow of the blues, huh I love the blues, they tell my story If you don't feel it I will tell you once again All of my life I've been caught up in a crossfire 'Cause I've been branded with the devil mark of cain Everyday I realize, you can see it in my eyes I never wait or hesitate 'Cause I love the life I live, I'm gonna live the life I choose You gotta understand I'm walking in the shadow of the blues I'm walking in the shadow of the blues, yeah
