Robert Johnson - 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
Mmm, 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
Mmm, the sun goin' down, boy
Dark gon' catch me here
Boy, dark gon' 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 standin' at the crossroad, babe
I believe I'm sinkin' down

It's weird how he extends some breaks between the singing lines & not others.
He was truly marching to his own drummer.
