Sweet Shadow Man Lyrics
Sweet Shadow Man by Lavender Country
When we all knew where the Jim Crow flew
And sodomy was a huge taboo
I came creeping to you
You had a downcast eye on the back of the bus
When we was on the down low hush
But the midnight moon made my hot blood gush
When I came creeping to you
When I came creeping to you
Oh, sweet shadow man, nap nap nappy hair
Oh, sweet shadow man, meet you in the weeds, I swear
On Saturday night when the sun went down
I was laying on my back and bare
On Sunday morning when the sun came up
I was a white Baptist in prayer
Lunch counter for me, lunch counter for you
Fountain for whites and another one too
But it came to nothing after we got through
When I came creeping to you
Can't you hear mama weep and wail?
Daddy's shotgun's got rock salt and nails
He'd shoot me dead and he'd shoot me too
If he knew I was creeping to you
If he knew I was creeping to you
Oh, sweet shadow man setting my loins on fire
Oh, sweet shadow man, fill me with your long thick spire
On Saturday night when the sun went down
I was twitching like a bird on a wire
On Sunday morning when the sun came up
I was a dirty rotten low down liar
Dirty rotten low down liar
Dirty rotten low down liar
