Crossroads Lyrics

I was walking at a Crossroads

When the Devil came my way

He said I just came in from Georgia

How'd you like to make a deal today?

I said, slow your roll, what can you do for me?

Cause from all the stories I've been told

You've got a bad history

He said son forget what you've heard

And tell me what you want

Cause in an instant it will appear

There's only one condition

He said you'll never grow old

Fame and fortune can find you today

And all I need is your soul

Here's a pen and a paper sign away

He leaned closer

Boy listen here, are you sure you understand?

Cause once I'm gone you're done

You only get one chance

There's no refunds no returns

You can pay me in advance

Oh just trust me son I have got a plan

He said you'll never grow old

Fame and fortune can find you today

And all I need is your soul

Here's a pen and a paper sign away

Before he left

He turned around and made his final plea

Let me ask you one question boy

What happened to your dream?

Do I trade my soul for fortune and fame?

It's a deal too good to be true

I know I should walk away

And then I saw that grin

When I begged him oh please sir don't go

And I just couldn't say no

Here's the pen, here's the paper

Take my soul

And now I'm dead in the ground

And I have nothing

Nothing

Not even my soul
