Thomas J. Dooley

CROSSROADS BLUES

Got no compassion doing the devil\'s deeds

If you got dreams at the crossroads, is where you can meet

 

Feeds you those deep fried southern lies

You\'ve eaten them so many times, lost your pride

 

Got no faith when the devil moved in

It got up out of there never to be seen again

 

Have a million dollars but nothing to spend it on

You sold that one part that makes you who you are

Now there is nothing in your heart

 

Got no friends that\'s when the devil comes in

He puts on his smile knowing your contact date is coming due

 

Now you\'re trapped as the music goes out of tune

Losing your fame and you don\'t know what to do

 

Your living the crossroads blues
