Crossroads Lyrics

I was rollin', I was flyin' high
cards were fallin', from out of the sky
I was way up, on top of the game
I could see like an eagle, hold my hand in the flame
I knew I had it, the moment was mine
it was all so clear, so frozen in time
I was about to lay it down, was about to let it fly
when from across the room, somebody caught my eye

YOU CAN FIND A CROSSROADS, MAKE YOU A DEAL
TAKE A CHANCE, SPIN THE WHEEL
STRIKE A BARGAIN, FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU NEED
BUT YOU'RE GONNA GET CUT, AND YOU'RE GONNA BLEED
I got a little nervous, I hedged my bet
I started thinkin', 'bout things that hadn't happened yet
I saw the instant, I lost my edge
tryin' to balance, out on the ledge

YOU CAN FIND A CROSSROADS, MAKE YOU A DEAL
TAKE A CHANCE, SPIN THE WHEEL
STRIKE A BARGAIN, FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU NEED
BUT YOU'RE GONNA GET CUT, AND YOU'RE GONNA BLEED
he slid on in, slipped me a name
it didn't mean nothin' but I knew just the same
he had what I wanted, made it sound right
said I knew where to meet him, just before midnight

YOU CAN FIND A CROSSROADS, MAKE YOU A DEAL
TAKE A CHANCE, SPIN THE WHEEL
STRIKE A BARGAIN, FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU NEED
BUT YOU'RE GONNA GET CUT, AND YOU'RE GONNA BLEED
now I know some people, who sold their souls to the devil
and they don't sound nothin', like Robert Johnson
