James Brown
A Man Has to Go Back to the Cross Road Before He Finds Himself
[Intro]
Sometimes when you've been misused
And you feel that, maybe you've been abused
I've got to go back to find myself
Well believe me, that'll definitely leave you confused
Here's what to do
Back to the crossroad
Crossroad

[Chorus]
A man has to go back to the cross road before he finds himself
A man has to go back to the cross road before he finds himself
A man has to go back to the cross road before he finds himself
A man has to go back to the cross road before he finds himself

[Verse 1]
Sometimes it's tough, sometimes it's rough
Sometimes your loved one, they don't love you, just enough
Oh! (It's so hard) It's so hard, but it's fair (fair...)
When there's someone that said they can love you
They jivin', and then doggone they don't care

[Chorus]
A man has to go back to the cross road before he finds himself
A man has to go back to the cross road before he finds himself
I had to go back to the cross road to find myself
[Verse 2]
Sometimes it looks like a whole, whole lot has changed
Sometimes the one that said they loved me
It seems oh so strange
(It's so hard) Alright I know it's tough
Hard, and it's fair (it's fair...)
When someone said they don't love ya
And I know they don't care

[Chorus]
A man has to go back to the cross road before he finds himself
Come and go with me to the cross roads, to find yourself
Help me, help me go back to the cross road to find myself
(People need to go back) Oh Lord
(To find themselves, wow-ow) Waaow, baby...
(People need to go back)
(To find themselves) I gotta go back...
