I Never Went To the Crossroads

When I began
I used to stay home
And I made up tunes
That wouldn't stand the light of day

When I began
I stayed up all night
Pushing up words
That would turn pale at first daylight

But I never went to the crossroads
Never met the devil
Didn't learn no magic tricks
I never sold my soul

I used to count
Every nickel and dime
That I had made
By playing the blues in new wave bars

Now I grow old
Still trade my songs for small change
I sing about the light of day
And how to keep the dark at bay

I never stood at the crossroads
Never met the devil
I don't know no magic tricks
I never sold my soul
