I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
Asked the lord for mercy, said 'help me if you please'
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
No one seemed to know me, everybody passed me by
You can run, You can run, tell my friend w**** Brown
You can run, you can run, tell my friend w**** Brown
That I'm standing at the crossroads, I believe I'm sinking down
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
Asked the lord for mercy, said 'help me if you please'
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
No one seemed to know me, everybody passed me by
You can run, You can run, tell my friend w**** Brown
You can run, you can run, tell my friend w**** Brown
That I'm standing at the crossroads, I believe I'm sinking down
