Shadowland Lyrics - Steve Earle

Way out yonder, where the wild wind blows 

There's a place there lonely fools can go 

Where if you hold your money, it'll burn your hand 

So you buy you a ticket to the shadowland 

[Chorus:] 

Down the highway, down the road I'm bound 

And my heart keeps poundin' and the wheels go 'round 

And it's a hard place for a mortal man 

And a heartbroke pilgrim in the shadowland

Yeah, when I was younger I could hold my own 

My right hand was thunder and my left was stone 

Now I ain't as handsome as I was back then 

So I'm takin' my chances in the shadowland 

[Chorus] 

Photos 

Been down a thousand highways and they're all the same 

Another empty place where I can hide my shame 

And there's a heartache waitin' up around the bend 

For a lonesome stranger in the shadowland 

[Chorus]
