Cross Road Blues (Alternate Take)

(album: The Complete Recordings - 1990)

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"

Mmm, standing at the crossroad, I tried to flag a ride
Standing at the crossroad, I tried to flag a ride
Didn't nobody seem to know me, everybody pass me by

Mmm, the sun going down, boy, dark gon' catch me here
Ooo, oooeee, boy, dark gon' catch me here
I haven't got no loving 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, that I'm standing at the crossroad, babe, I believe I'm sinking down
