Crossroads

By eric clapton

She is cryin', she is cryin'.
She's been cryin' all night long.
She's been cryin' for her one and only son.

She will weep, she will moan.
She will moan the night away.
She will weep and moan until the break of day.

I had called for the doctor,
But the doctor can't be found.
So what could i do but sit and look around?

Oh lord, won't you hear,
Won't you hear me when i pray.
Please send this girl her one and only son.

She is cryin', she is cryin'.
She is cryin' the whole night long.
She is cryin' for her one and only son.

Ready, get ready. ready.
He's a man who's going to break your heart.
Ready, get ready. ready.
He's a man who's going to break your heart.

Well, you've been fooling 'round and i don't know why.
Left me on my own, sitting high and dry.
But i'm going to get you back, just you wait and see;
You can't do those things that you're doing to me.

Chorus

I've never needed a running 'round pissing hound,
Checking out the bitches in heat.
You've got a lot of nerve, dishing out what you serve,
Waggling your piece of meat.

Chorus

I want to get revenge on your sinful sins.
I got to get you back for what you did back then.
And now you've got it back, life is misery.
Well, ha ha ha to you, ha ha to me.

Ready, get ready. ready.
He's the one that's going to break your heart.
Ready, get ready. ready.
He's the one that's going to break your heart, break your heart,
Break your heart, break your heart.

Get ready, get ready, get ready.
He's the one who's going to break your heart, break your heart,
Break your heart, break your heart,
Break your heart, break your heart,
Break your heart.

Get ready, get ready, get ready.
'cause he's the one who's going to break your heart, break your heart,
Break your heart, break your heart.

By don williams

There's no cause to think that i won't stay;
Haven't i been with you all the way?
There's no time like now to make amends.
After all, we are more than friends.

This could be the time for you and me.
We could go wherever we should be.
So don't put words between us we shouldn't say,
And don't be acting halfway
When you know we're all the way.

There are times when i don't see the light.
I don't know if what i do is right.
But when i'm wrong, it's never meant for you,
So don't confuse my love with what i do.

Chorus

(by billy myles)

Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
And all the time you know she bears another man's name.

But you just love that woman so much it's a shame and a sin.
You just love that woman so much it's a shame and a sin.
But all the time you know she belongs to your very best friend.

Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Something deep inside of you won't let you wreck your best friend's home.

(by elmore james, morgan robinson and clarence lewis)

The sky is crying, look at the tears rolling down the streets.
The sky is crying, look at the tears rolling down the streets.
I looked out my window, the rain was falling down in sheets.

My baby left me this morning, lord knows i don't know the reason why.
My baby left me this morning, i don't know the reason why.
And everytime i think about it, i hang my head and cry.

The sun is shining, although it's raining in my heart.
The sun is shining, although it's raining in my heart.
I love my baby, i hate to see us part.

(by eric clapton)

It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me
Do i look alright
And i say yes, you look wonderful tonight

We go a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And i say yes, i feel wonderful tonight

I feel wonderful
Because i see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much i love you

It's time to go home now
And i've got an aching head
So i give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then i tell her
As i turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight

(by robert johnson)

I got rambling, i got rambling all on my mind.
I got rambling, i got rambling all on my mind.
I hates to leave my baby, but she treats me so unkind.

I got mean things, i got mean things all on my mind.
I got mean things, i got mean things all on my mind.
I hates to leave my baby, but she treats me so unkind.

I'm going down to the station, catch the fastest train i see.
I'm going down to the station, catch the fastest train i see.
I got the blues 'bout miss so-and-so, and her son's got the blues about me.

I got rambling, i got rambling all on my mind.
I got rambling, i got rambling all on my mind.
I hates to leave my baby, but she treats me so unkind.

By eric clapton and bobby whitlock

Got to find me a way
To take me back to yesterday.
How can i ever hope to forget you?

Won't you show me a place
Where i can hide my lonely face?
I know you're going to break my heart if i let you.

Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?

Like a moth to a flame,
Like a song without a name,
I've never been the same since i met you.

Like a bird on the wing,
I've got a brand new song to sing,
I can't keep from singing about you.

Chorus

I'm beginning to see
What a fool you've made of me.
I might have to break the law when i find you.

Stop running away;
I've got a better game to play,
You know i can't go on living without you.

Chorus

(by st. louis jimmy)

I have had my fun if i never get well no more.
I have had my fun if i never get well no more.
All of my health is failing;
Lord, i'm going down slow,

I'm going down slow.
Please write my mother and tell her the shape i'm in.
Please write my mother and tell her the shape i'm in.
Tell her to pray for me,
Forgive me for my sin,
For all of my sin.

On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.
On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.
'cause all of my health is failing;
Lord, i'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.

All of my health is failing;
Lord, i'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.

Feel like i'm going, like i'm going down slow.
I feel like i'm going, like i'm going down slow.
I feel like i'm going, like i'm going down slow.
I feel like i'm going, like i'm going down slow.
I feel like i'm going, like i'm going down slow.

By eric clapton

Feel like someone's put the hurt on me,
And it's making me feel sad.
Feel like someone's trying to turn me away
From the good times to the bad.

Feel like someone's trying to teach me
What is wrong from what is right.
And i can't belong to everyone;
Let me stay with you tonight.

And i hope it makes somebody happy.
Lord, i hope it makes somebody happy.

This river's hard enough for me to swim,
But there's nowhere left to hide.
I ain't no swimmer but i won't give in
Till i reach the other side.

Chorus

'cause it's all to make somebody happy.
It takes us all to make somebody happy.

By danny flowers

Well, i left oklahoma
Driving in a pontiac,
Just about to lose my mind.
I was going to arizona,
Maybe on to california
Where people all live so fine.

My mother says i'm crazy,
My baby calls me lazy,
But i'm gonna show them all this time
'cause you know i ain't no fool and
i don't need no more damn schoolin'.
I was born to just walk the line.

Living on tulsa time.
Living on tulsa time.
Gonna set my watch back to it
'cause you know that i've been through it.
Living on tulsa time.

So there i was in hollywood,
Thinking i was doing good,
Talking on the telephone line.
They don't want me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs;
My mama says my baby's doing fine.

So then i started winking,
Then i started thinking
That i really had a flash this time.
That i had no bussiness leaving,
And nobody would be grieving;
You see i'm on tulsa time.

By eric clapton

Water on the ground, cloud on the sun,
Moon on the rise and the wind on the run.
But you know it's only water,
Water on the ground.

Snow is falling, weather is cold.
Maybe i'm just getting old.
And i think it's only water,
Water on the ground.

Back to the rivers, back to the sea,
Keeps on running, just like me.
But you know it's only water,
Water on the ground.

By jimi hendrix

Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running 'round.
Butterflies and zebras, fairy tales,
That's all she ever thinks about.

When i'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles she gives to me free.
Said, "it's all right, take anything you want,
Anything you want, anything."

Fly on, little wing.

By bob marley

I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.

All around in my home town
They're trying to track me down.
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy,
For the life of a deputy.
But i say:

I shot the sheriff, but i swear it was in self-defense.
I shot the sheriff, and they say it is a capital offense.

Sheriff john brown always hated me;
For what i don't know.
Every time that i plant a seed
He said, "kill it before it grows."
He said, "kill it before it grows."
I say:

I shot the sheriff, but i swear it was in self-defense.
I shot the sheriff, but i swear it was in self-defense.

Freedom came my way one day
And i started out of town.
All of a sudden i see sheriff john brown
Aiming to shoot me down.
So i shot, i shot him down.
I say:

I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.

Reflexes got the better of me
And what is to be must be.
Every day the bucket goes to the well,
But one day the bottom will drop out,
Yes, one day the bottom will drop out.
But i say:

I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy, oh no.
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy, oh no.

Further on up the road someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me.
Further on up the road someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me.
Further on up the road, baby, just you wait and see.

You gotta reap just what you sow; that old saying is true.
You gotta reap just what you sow; that old saying is true.
Just like you mistreat someone, someone's gonna mistreat you.

You been laughing, pretty baby, someday you're gonna be crying.
You been laughing, pretty baby, someday you're gonna be crying.
Further on up the road you'll find out i wasn't lying.

Further on up the road someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me.
Further on up the road someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me.
Further on up the road, baby, just you wait and see.

(by otis rush)

Lay awake at night,
Oh so low, just so troubled.
Can't get a job,
Laid off and i'm having double trouble.

Hey hey, to make you've got to try.
Baby, that's no lie.
Some of this generation is millionaires;
I can't even keep decent clothes to wear.

Laugh at me walking,
And i have no place to go.
Bad luck and trouble has taken me;
I have no money to show.

Chorus

By bob dylan

Ma, take this badge off of me.
I can't use it any more.
It's getting dark, too dark to see.
Feel like i'm knockin' on heaven's door.

Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.

Ma, take these guns away from me.
I can't shoot them any more.
There's a long black cloud following me.
Feel like i'm knockin' on heaven's door.

Tell the truth. tell me who's been fooling you?
Tell the truth. who's been fooling who?

There you sit there, looking so cool
While the whole show is passing you by.
You better come to terms with your fellow men soon, cause...

The whole world is shaking now. can't you feel it?
A new dawn is breaking now. can't you see it?

Tell the truth. tell me who's been fooling you
Tell the truth. who's been fooling who?

It doesn't matter just who you are,
Or where you're going or been.
Open your eyes and look into your heart.

The whole world is shaking now. can't you feel it?
A new dawn is breaking now. can't you see it?
I said see it, yeah, can't you see it?
Can't you see it, yeah, can't you see it?
I can see it, yeah.

Tell the truth. tell me who's been fooling you
Tell the truth. who's been fooling who?

Hear what i say, 'cause every word is true.
You know i wouldn't tell you no lies.
Your time's coming, gonna be soon, boy.
