(Steve Earle)

Way out yonderwhere the wild wind blows
There s a place there lonely fools can go
Where if you hold your moneyit ll burn your hand
So you buy you a ticket to the shadowland

chorus
Down the highwaydown 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

Yeahwhen 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

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
