Crossroads (Robert Johnson cover) Lyrics
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
[guitar solo]
you can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown
you can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie 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
no one seemed to know me, everybody passed me by
you can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown
that I'm standing at the crossroads, I believe I'm sinking down

This song is worse , its not suppose to be on this album..
I was sorely disappointed. He's put out some wonderful covers, but this?!?! Robby J's rolling right now...
Maybe it's only because I haven't heard the orginal but I love this song! So bluesy and amazing, I only wish it was a little longer. One of my top 3 of the album. Then again I haven't heard the original so I have nothing to compare it to.
Well I have yet to hear the Robert Johnson version, however I did accidentally stumble across the Cream version...Which really sucked in comparison to my John. Sorry Clapton! :(
