[Verse 1]
Boots in the dust
Hem full of mud
Lip tastes like bourbon
Tongue tastes like blood
I walked through your thunder
Grinned at your rain
You carved up my story
I kept my name
[Chorus]
I fear no evil
The shadow is mine
I dance in the dark
Like it’s by design
You can keep your crown
You can draw that line
I fear no evil
The shadow is mine
[Verse 2]
You pray I’ll stumble
Hands on your beads
I plant my trouble
Like outlaw seeds
You send your vultures
Circle my sky
I wink at the reaper
Tell him pass me by (oh, pass me by)
[Chorus]
I fear no evil
The shadow is mine
I dance in the dark
Like it’s by design
You can keep your crown
You can draw that line
I fear no evil
The shadow is mine
[Bridge]
This is my valley
Low and wide
Bones in the bramble
Stars on my side
You want my sorrow
You want my cry?
I got a laugh so wicked
Make the night run dry (hey!)
[Chorus]
I fear no evil
The shadow is mine
I drink with the ghosts
Call that supper time
You can curse my name
I still rise and shine
I fear no evil
The shadow is mine
