Lyrics for 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, save poor Bob, if you please" Ooh, standin' at the crossroad, I tried to flag a ride Standin' at the crossroad, I tried to flag a ride Didn't nobody seem to know me, everybody pass me by Ooh, the sun goin' down boy, dark goin' catch me here Ooh-eeh, boy dark goin' get me here I haven't got no lovin' sweet woman that love and feel my care You can run, you can run, tell my friend boy Willie Brown You can run, tell my friend boy Willie Brown Lord that I'm standin' at the crossroad, babe I believe I'm sinkin' down
