"Crossroads" lyrics

"Crossroads"
(originally by Robert Johnson)

I went down to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees
I went down to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees
I'm begging you for mercy
Won't you take me please

I went down to the crossroads
Tried to beg a ride
I went down to the crossroads
Tried to beg a ride
Well, nobody seemed to know me
Everybody just passed me by

I remember the day (At the crossroads)
Where I lost my way (At the crossroads)
I was down in the hole, yeah, I sold my soul
At the crossroads

(Play it, Doug)

Goin' down to Rosedale
Take my rider by my side
Goin' down, down, down to Rosedale
My rider by my side
I can still buy a house there
On the riverside
(That's right)

I remember the day (At the crossroads)
Where I lost my way (At the crossroads)
I was down in the hole, yeah, I sold my soul
At the crossroads, ugh

You can run, you can run
You can run, you can run
Tell my friends I'll get by
You can run, you can run
You can run, you can run
Tell my friends I'll get by
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe, yeah, yeah, yeah
I believe I'm sinking down

(Tell Mr. Johnson I said hello...)
