Cross Road Blues lyrics

I went down to the crossroad

fell down on my knees.

I went down to the crossroad

fell down on my knees.

Asked the lord above "Have mercy now

save poor Bob if you please".

Yeeooo, standin at the crossroad

tried to flag a ride.

ooo ooo eee

I tried to flag a ride.

Didn't nobody seem to know me babe

everybody pass me by.

Standin at the crossroad babe

risin sun goin' down.

Standin at the crossroad babe

eee 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 Brown.

You can run, you can run

tell my friend Willie Brown.

(th)'at I got the croosroad blues this mornin Lord

babe, I'm sinkin down.

And I went to the crossroad momma

I looked east and west.

I went to the crossroad baby

I looked east and west.

Lord, I didn't have no sweet woman

ooh-well babe, in my distress.
