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
