Long Shadow Music Lyrics

Well I'll tell you one thing that I know, you don't face your demons down,
you gotta grapple 'em Jack and pin 'em to the ground.
The devil may care maybe God he won't,
but you better make sure you check on the do's and the don'ts.
Crawl up the mountain to reach where the eagles fly,
'An sure you can glimpse from the mountain top where the soul of the news might rise,

And if you put it all together, you won't have to look around.
You know you cast a Long Shadow on the ground.

Then one day I could tell my tracks, by the holes in the soles of my shoes,
and thats the day I said I'm gonna make the news.
And fallin' back in the garden, of days so long ago,
somewhere in the memory, the sun shines on you boy.
And playin in the ol' Royals, where the American rivers flow,
from the appalachians and down to the delta roads.
A man cant think so long, his brain could well explode.
A streams runnin' through the junction, and King Cotton's down the road.

and if you put it all together, you won't have to look around.
You know you cast a Long Shadow on the ground.

Listen to the country, the night jar round the bell.
Listen to the night streamliners, Soundin' like the whouls of Hell
Head for the water, the water of the cleansing spell.
It was always our destination, on the express of the ne'er do wells.
and we rock through in Madison City, and we didn't even know she was there.
and when we hit the boppers in Memphis, a real street didn't have no cares.
and I here punks talk of anarchy, I here hobos on the rail roads
I here mutterin on the chain gangs, it was those men who built the roads.

and if you put it all together,
you won't have to look around.
You cast a Long Shadow and that is your testament

From somewhere in my soul,
There's always ROCK & ROLL.. Yeah.
