Crossroad Blues, Take 1 Songtext
von Robert Johnson

Recording of November 27, 1936
San Antonio, Texas
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"
Mmmmm, standin′ at the crossroad, i tried to flag a ride


Standin' at the crossroad, i tried to flag a ride
Didn′t nobody semm to know me, everybody pass me by
Mmmm, the sun goin' down, boy, dark gon' catch me here
Oooo, eeee, 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 i′m standin' at the crossroad, babe, i believe i′m sinkin' down
