Crossroads

I went to the crossroads Fell down on my knees I went to the crossroads Fell down on my knees I asked the lord above "Have mercy on poor me, if you please" Standing at the crossroad Tried to flag a ride I went down to the crossroad Tried to flag a ride Didn't nobody seem to know me but Everybody passed me by Standing at the crossroad, baby Rising sun going down I'm standing at the crossroad, baby See the rising sun going down, down I believe in my soul, now Poor me, poor me is sinking down You can run, you can run Just tell my friend Willie Brown You can run, you can run Just tell my friend Willie Brown That I got the crossroad blues This morning, Lord, baby And I'm slowly sinking down Down, down, down, down, down And I went down to the crossroad And I looked east and west I went to the crossroad, baby I looked east I looked west Lord, I didn't have me no sweet man To hold me in my distress
