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

Mmmm, 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

Mmmm, the Sun goin' down boy
Dark goin' catch me here
Oh, oh, eh
Boy dark goin' catch 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 standing at the crossroad, babe
I believe I'm sinkin' down
