[Verse 1]
Lord, I went down to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees
Yes, I went down to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees
Asked the Lord for mercy, woohoo
"Save me, if you please"

[Verse 2]
Well, I went down to the crossroads
Tried to flag a ride
Yes, I went down to the crossroads
I tried to flag a ride
Nobody seemed to know me, woohoo
Everybody passed me by

[Verse 3]
Oh, I'm going down to Rosedale
My riders by my side
Well, I'm going down to Rosedale
My riders by my side
And we can still barrelhouse, baby
Down by the riverside

[Verse 4]
Well, you can run, you can run
Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown
Oh, you can run, you can run
Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown
Tell him that I'm standing at this crossroad, babe
Believe I am sinking down
[Outro]
Thank you
