I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
Down to the crossroads fell down on my knees
Asked the lord above for mercy, 'take me, if you please'
I went down to the crossroads tried to flag a ride
Down to the crossroads tried to flag a ride
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by
Well, I'm going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
We can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside
Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
We can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside
You can run, you can run tell my friend boy Willie Brown
Run, you can run tell my friend boy Willie Brown
And I'm standing at the crossroads believe I'm sinking down
Thank you, Eric Clapton lead, uh vocal
Down to the crossroads fell down on my knees
Asked the lord above for mercy, 'take me, if you please'
I went down to the crossroads tried to flag a ride
Down to the crossroads tried to flag a ride
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by
Well, I'm going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
We can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside
Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side
We can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside
You can run, you can run tell my friend boy Willie Brown
Run, you can run tell my friend boy Willie Brown
And I'm standing at the crossroads believe I'm sinking down
Thank you, Eric Clapton lead, uh vocal
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees Down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees I said,?I'm beggin' for mercy, Incomprehensible if you please?' I went down to the crossroads, tried to beg a ride Down to the crossroads, tried to beg a ride Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by I wanna take a ride. Eric Clapton 'Crossroads': I went down to the crossroads Fell down on my knees I went down to the crossroads Fell down on my kn.
- Crossroads Lyrics: All you folks think you own my life / But you never made any sacrifice / Demons they are on my trail / I'm standing at the crossroads of the hell / I look to the left I look to the.
- Lyrics to 'Crossroads' by Cream. I went down to the crossroads Fell down on my knees Down to the crossroads Fell down on my knees Asked the Lord above for mercy Cream - Crossroads Lyrics MetroLyrics.

Travelling through time (In the hearts of slaves)
Nature flickers (Through the day and night)
(Cruelty and kindness) Chaos and creation
Many faces, many names, never sure what's black and white
Try to make it to the crossroads
But my eyes begin to fail
(x2) Protector of the travelling man, the keeper of the crossroads
Ancient myths and caravans, open doors to secret codes
Reaching the threshold (Between four sides of life)
Not here nor there (Brings out the inner child)
Every cross with every zero helps us to decide
The actions that we undertake (Knowledge will provide)
Try to make it to the crossroads
But my eyes begin to fail
(x2) Protector of the travelling man, the keeper of the crossroads
Ancient myths and caravans, open doors to secret codes
Convergence of realities, commonalities
Between theory and phenomena, the silent devotees
Bringing out the fool in man he wants to show the way
Intersecting points of view, can lead to disarray
Eshu... You know I'm caught between two worlds
Eshu... Into the void I am hurled
Eshu... I find I'm neither here nor there
Eshu... Help me now before I fall into despair
He fools us time and time again, walk away my friend
Another wrong direction, a rolling of dice
Wearing black or wearing red depends on where you stand
A ghostly apparition takes you by the hand
(x2) Eshu... You know I'm caught between two worlds
Eshu... Into the void I am hurled
Eshu... I find I'm neither here nor there
Eshu... Help me now before I fall into despair
On the edge of every path our minds can be confused
Our journey only just begun the guide is not excused
Offerings and choices from the Guardian of the Door
The point at which we make the choice dictates the inner core
How many decisions give breed reality?
From the mundane to the magical, there's no guarantee
Are we all on the same path? Are we heading to the light?
Are we going through the right door?
Will we all reunite? When will we all reunite?
No the truth is what we seek, it's everything we are
Have we found the right way or have we gone too far?
There's no way we can turn back if we can't reach the cross
On the only road to reason
Will we all reunite? When will we all reunite?
Will you carry me home at the end of my time?
An offering of peace amid the confusion
Will Ifá arise and heal the broken heart
And cure the cosmic grand illusion?
Forming together, fates intertwined
Elements brought together from the dawn of the age
Languages long since forgotten brought forth
Tongues made of fire dancing through the rage
The dark horse shines, the restlessness grows
As the blood starts to flow from the cracks in the earth
Speaking all with the same heart and mind
The balance will shift as the virgin gives birth
(x2) Forming together, fates intertwined
Elements brought together from the dawn of the age
Languages long since forgotten brought forth
Tongues made of fire dancing through the rage
Travelling through time (In the hearts of slaves)
Nature flickers (Through the day and night)
I made it to the crossroads
Before my eyes could fail
You fooled me once, but not again
I walk away this time
And head in the direction I’m supposed to go
You very nearly made a fool of me
But now that I can see
The point of resurrection leads me from below
I did it all for you
I did it all for you
I did it all for you
I did it all for you
And so I look back on my time
And wonder if there's anything I could have changed
I hope you know how hard I tried
To always take the path of light
And even though sometimes I lost
The part of me that should be ever faithful
I tried to look upon the cross and hold on to what's right
(x2) I listen to your voice
Your outstretched arms they guide me
I hold on to your love, I hold on to your love
I have no other choice
Your gentle spirit revives me
I hold on to your love, I hold on to your love
And all the choices still remain
And many questions that are left unanswered
But I can see through all the pain
The right way every time...
Nature flickers (Through the day and night)
(Cruelty and kindness) Chaos and creation
Many faces, many names, never sure what's black and white
