lovehunter albümünden en gaz whitesnake şarkılarından biridir. grubun o dönemdeki müzikal yapısını da büyük ölçüde yansıtır.
i love the blues,
they tell my story,
if you don't feel it
you can never understand.
so many times
i 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.
'cos 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 a strange 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.
'cos 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.
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,
and i'm walking in the
shadow of the blues.
(solo)
everyday of my life.
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,
'cos 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.
'cos 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.
