Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I'm standin' at the crossroads, I'm tryin' to flag a ride
(Flag a ride, boy, tryin' to flag a)
I'm standin' at the crossroads, tryin' to flag a ride
All my friends seem to know me
But just keep passin' me on by
(Pass me by, now, they just passed me by)
I'm standin' at the crossroads, fell down on my knees
(On my knees, Lord, fell down on my knees)
Standin' at the crossroads, fell down on my knees
Asked the Lord above for mercy
Won't you forgive me please?
(Uh, Lord forgive me, won't you forgive me, please?)
[Verse 2]
Well, you can run, you can run, tell my friend, boy
I see Willie, but I can't run
You can run, you can run
Tell my friend Willie Brown
Saw me standin' at the crossroads I was sinkin', uh
I mean sinkin' down
[Verse 3]
Sun's goin' down, dark gonna catch me here
(Catch me, catch me, catch me, dark's gon' catch me here)
Well, sun goin' down, dark's gonna catch me here
I ain't got no lovin' sweet woman, left me, left me feelin' my fear
[Verse 4]
Well, I'm standin' at the crossroads (Standin' at the crossroads)
Standin' at the crossroads (Ooh, down at the crossroads)
Gotta make a new deal down at the (Standin' at the crossroads)
Makin' a deal down at the (Down at the crossroads)
[Verse 5]
Ay, down at the crossroads
Make a new deal
(Down at the crossroads)
(At the crossroads)
(Ooh, down at the crossroads)
Go, let the Devil ride (Let the Devil ride)
Sayin', go, let the Devil ride
Just remember, if you let him ride
The Devil's choice, Hell gonna wanna drive
Look out, pick me up, whoo, pick me up
Pick me up, ow, pick me up, now let the choir go
Pick me up, ooh, pick me up, I'm standin' at the crossroads
(Pick me up, oh, pick me up, pick me up, ooh, pick me up)
I'm so lonesome down here, don't pass me by
(Pick me up, oh, pick me up, pick me up, ooh, pick me up)
In the morning, don't pass me by, in the evening, pick me up right now
[Verse 6]
(Pick me up, why won't ya?)
(Why won't ya?)
(Pick me up, why won't ya?)
Pick me up right now, hey, baby, don't pass me up
(Why won't ya? Why won't ya? Pick me up, why won't ya?)
(Pick me up, why won't ya? Pick me up, why won't ya?)
(Whoa, pick me up, why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Woo, why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
(Why won't ya pick me up?)
