Lyrics Bonnie Dune - Shadow of a Man

I should’ve been the son of a cowboy
Held up high his pride and joy
He’d sing, he’d sing for me
Stories of youth behind smoky eyes
He’d say grab a hold
This your life and ride
Wild and free

I’m just a shadow of a man
He gave me a name and took my love and ran
I’m just a shadow of a man

I should’ve been the son of a sailor
To keep me safe through all the storms
I’ll meet to stay on course
Travel the world on winds and waves
Live our lives from day to day
And steal the salt from the sea

I’m just a shadow of a man
He gave me a name and took my love and ran
I’m just a shadow
I’m just a shadow of a man

I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try

I should’ve been the son of a preacher
I’m on my knees, I’m begging please
Pray for me
I should’ve been the son of a preacher
I’m on my knees, pray for me
Pray for me

I’m just a shadow of a man
Gave me a name and took my love and ran
I’m just a shadow
I’m just a shadow
I’m just a shadow of a man
