My Shadow is Looking Big

There was a man
Oh yes there was
Who looked at the ceiling
To see his shadow loom
"My shadow is looking big"
"Oh lord, my shadow is looking big"
"Mr. Shadow, Mr. Big Man"
"I don't want to fight you no more"
"Oh lord, don't kill me tonight"
"You see that girl sleeping over there?"
"Yeah, that's my girl."
"She's beautiful, ain't she?"
"She's packing something precious"
"Something I wanna hold"
"Something I never knew before"
"Oh yes, it's true. I ain't gonna lie"
"Son of a preacher, lover of many"
"There are many things I've been"
"Liar, cheater, dirty son of a bitch"
"But I'm her son of a bitch"
"That's all we got here"
"Mr. Shadow, Mr. Big Man"
"Don't fight me today"
"Cause I no longer got the strength"
