Rainy Day Crossroad Blues Songtext
The sky is fallin' and the ground is reachin' up;
the river's goin' by and the water's gettin' high
and I feel like givin' up.
Standin' in the downpour with these
rainy day crossroad blues.
Got those woods on my left, city on my right,
don't wanna sleep alone tonight again, no I don't
Hole in my coat, hole in my shoes,
sittin' in Mobile singin' the blues about you, yes I am.
Company people call my house almost every day;
won't let a body concentrate,
gotta get some peace that way
Watchin' for that water risin',
think I'll put my guitar in my boat, yes I will.
'Cause I'm floatin' to the nearest levy
just to lay down in that sand .

Just pickin' wild berries, gettin' stung by honey bees;
the Lord above and the devil below
havin' a fight inside of me.
Thinkin' ' bout my gun, maybe that will set me free,
'cause thunder and lightnin' are trapped inside of me.

Innocent darlin' why treat your daddy this way?
The price of the question
is a mighty hard price to pay, yes it is.
'Cause you brought these
rainy day crossroad blues my way.
I can't take it no more.
