Crossroads
Every day I wake up I got the devil breathing down my back
So I bought myself a ticket southbound down the railroad tracks
Woke up in Mississippi in the land of the delta blues
Well there I met a man who said "Son I've got a deal for you"
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Baby I'm the man to see
You're gonna sign here on this line
You'll get yours and I'll get mine
We'll be livin' just like kings
You're gonna play a mean guitar
Every night a different bar
From New Orleans up Chicago's way
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Son you've got to pay to play
So I left out of the delta
Headed south down new Orleans way
Well there I met a man who said
"Son I can show you the way"
So I followed him down into a deep dark hole
Well now the devil's got a grip on this poor man's soul
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Baby I'm the man to see
You're gonna sign here on this line
You'll get yours and I'll get mine
We'll be livin' just like kings
You're gonna play a mean guitar
Every night a different bar
From New Orleans up Chicago's way
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Son you've got to pay to play
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Baby I'm the man to see
You're gonna sign here on this line
You'll get yours and I'll get mine
We'll be livin' just like kings
You're gonna play a mean guitar
Every night a different bar
From New Orleans up Chicago's way
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Son you've got to pay to play
So I bought myself a ticket southbound down the railroad tracks
Woke up in Mississippi in the land of the delta blues
Well there I met a man who said "Son I've got a deal for you"
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Baby I'm the man to see
You're gonna sign here on this line
You'll get yours and I'll get mine
We'll be livin' just like kings
You're gonna play a mean guitar

From New Orleans up Chicago's way
He said meet me at the crossroads
If you want to sell your soul
Son you've got to pay to play
