Lyrics to Crossroads

I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees

I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees

Begged the Lord above for mercy, "Save me if you please."



Well, I went down to the crossroads, tried to play it right

I went down to the crossroads, tried to play it right

Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed on by



Down at the crossroads, I saw the sun sinking down

I went down to the crossroads, I saw the sun sinking down

Lord above your mercy, I need your mercy now



I went down to the crossroads, I looked East and West

I went down to the crossroads, I looked East and West

I finally looked to heaven, to the One who loved me best



I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees

I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees

I begged the Lord for mercy, "Won't You save me if you please."
