Fell down on my knees

Asked the lord above "Have mercy,

Mmmmm, standin' at the crossroad
I tried to flag a ride
Standin' at the crossroad
I tried to flag a ride
Didn't nobody seem to know me
Everybody pass me by

Mmmm, the sun goin' down, boy
Dark gon' catch me here
Oooo, eeee
Boy, dark gon' catch me here
I haven't got no lovin' sweet woman that
Love and feel my care

You can run, you can run
Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown
You can run, hmmmm
Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown
Lord i'm standin' at the crossroad, babe
I believe i'm sinkin' down
