African Shadow Man lyrics

If you come to my house
I will show you something to see
It`s a picture of a man
I used to be
But these days I`m running through the dark
Like a blind man -- what`s happened to me?
These days I`m searching for a sign
In the badlands -- oh give it to me

Chorus
African shadow man tell me the future if you can
Tell it to me
There`s magic in your hands
Touch my life and set me free
African shadow man

I am a refugee
In a world that once was mine
Hunting my tomorrow
On the edge of time
But these days I`m running through the dark
Like a blind man -- what`s happened to me?
There days I`m running from a tribe in the badlands
Oh set me free

Chorus
African shadow man tell me the future if you can
Tell it to me
There`s magic in your hands
Oh touch my life and set me free
African shadow man tell me the future if you can
Tell it to me
I don`t need a Cadillac
To take me where I have to be

It feels alright, it feels alright to me
It feels alright, it feels alright to be
An African
E-ye hum-o-hum-hum-oh

Chorus
African shadow man show me the future if you can
Tell it to me
There`s magic in your hands
Oh touch my life and set me free
African shadow man tell me the future if you can
Tell it to me
I don`t need a Cadillac
To take me where I have to be
A shadow man
