Like Robert Johnson or Elmore James
Maybe I'll bump into some famous names
You know that I'm no kid, I know my way around
With an empty heart and a dollar ten
Standing at the cross roads again
Standing at the cross roads again
So, here I am on my own again
I looked in the kitchen, I looked in the hall
I guess, I ain't the man she was looking for
Where did I go wrong this time?
Maybe I should give up trying
I never ever step out of line
Standing at the cross roads again
My baby was nowhere around
I can't hold no romance down
Maybe I'll bump into some famous names
There were lipstick traces on the bedroom door
With an empty heart and a dollar ten
Maybe I'll bump into some famous names
Standing at the cross roads again
Like Robert Johnson or Elmore James
Like Robert Johnson or Elmore James
I feel like good, like a gentleman should
In my slippers and dressing gown
Well, I woke up this morning like I usually do
Six feet tall, a hundred and sixty pound
But just the man she found
'Goodbye' she wrote, I don't want you no more
Standing at the cross roads again
Standing at the cross roads again
