crossroads lyrics

Rock 'n' roll

I went down to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees
Yes, down to the crossroad
Fell down on my knees

Sweet Lord, I'm beggin' for mercy
Won't you take me, if you please?
I went down to the crossroads
Tried to flag a ride, you tried that lately

Down to the crossroads
Tried to flag a ride
Nobody seemed to know me
Everybody passed me by

Well, I?m going down to Rosedale
Take Loretta by my side
Yes, down to Rosedale
Take Loretta by my side
Do you still have a house, baby
On the riverside?

Ah, burn it up

Going down to Rosedale
Take Loretta by my side
Yes, down to Rosedale
Take Loretta by my side
Do you still have a house, baby
On the riverside?

Oh, I got something to believe in, stick it

Yah, you can run, you can run
Tell all my friends, I'll be back
We?ll see y?all again, Atlanta
Take it easy, huh

You can run, you can run
Tell my friends, I'll be back
And I'll be standin' in the crossroads
I believe, I'm sinkin' down

Good night everybody
God bless ya, and thank you
Thanks everybody, good night
