Cross Road Blues

~~

I went to the crossroad,

Fell down on my knees

I went to the crossroad,

Fell down on my knees

Asked the Lord above

"Have mercy,

Now save poor Bob,

If you please"

~~

Yeoo,

Standin' at the crossroad,

Tried to flag a ride

Ooo eeee, I tried to flag a ride

Didn't nobody seem to know me,

Babe, everybody pass me by

~~

Standin' at the crossroad,

Baby, risin' sun goin' down

Standin' at the crossroad, baby,

Eee, eee, risin' sun goin' down

I believe to my soul, now,

Poor Bob is sinkin' down

~~

You can run, you can run,

Tell my friend

Willie BrownYou can run, you can run,

Tell my friend Willie Brown

That I got the crossroad blues this mornin',

Lord, babe, I'm sinkin' down

~~~~

And I went to the crossroad, mama,

I looked east and west

I went to the crossroad, baby,

I looked east and westLord,

I didn't have no sweet woman,

Ooh well, babe, in my distress
