Crossroads

[Verse 1]

I went down to the crossroads

Fell down on my knees

I went down to the crossroads

Fell down on my knees

Asked the Lord above for mercy

"Save me, if You please!"

[Verse 2]

I went down to the crossroads

Tried to flag a ride

I went down to the crossroads

Tried to flag a ride

Nobody seemed to know me

Everybody passed me by

[Verse 3]

I am going down to Rosedale

Take my rider by my side

I am going down to Rosedale

Take my rider by my side

You can still barrelhouse, baby

On the riverside

[Verse 4]

You can run, you can run

Tell my friend, Poor Lee Brown

You can run, you can run

Tell my friend, Poor Lee Brown

And I am standing at the crossroads

Believe I am sinking down
