Ain't no reason why I should feel this way
I got everything going for now Might have it all, some people say But each time I think of your smiling face For I took upon inside now In your sweet love I can take 'Cause I lost the best thing I miss you more everyday And I know deep inside me No one can take your place, oh no Sometimes when I am lonely And I can feel your presence near Well, I look at your picture And your sweet voice I can often hear But every time I really see you Oh, my heart often smiles And at that precise moment I break up all inside 'Cause I lost the best thing I miss you more everyday And I know deep inside me No one can take your place, oh no Oh, all alone, I've lost you T'was nothing you could do I lost my only creation And now I'm paying all the due But every time I really see you Oh, my heart often smiles And at that precise moment I break up all inside 'Cause I lost the best thing I miss you more everyday And I know deep inside me No one can take your place, oh no |

I was cuttin the rug down at a place called 'The Jug' with a girl named Linda Lou
When in walked a man with a gun in his hand he was looking for you know who He said "Hey there fellow with the hair coloured yellow, watcha tryin' to proove? Cuz' this is my woman there and I'm a man who cares and this might be all for you" (I said "excuse me!") I was scared and fearing for my life I was shaking like a leaf on a tree Cuz' he was lean and mean and big and bad, Lord, pointing that gun at me Oh! wait a minute mister, I didn't even kiss her don't want no trouble with you and I know you don't owe me but I wish you would let me ask one favour from you Say won't you Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister, gimme 3 steps toward the door? Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister and you'll never see me no more." (Guitar solo) Oh well the crowd cleared away and I began to pray and the water fell down to the floor and I'm telling you, son, it ain't no fun, staring straight down a fourty-four. Well, he turned and screamed at Linda Lou, and that's the break I was looking for and you could hear me screaming a mile away as I was headed out toward the door. Oh won't you Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister, gimme 3 steps toward the door? Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister and you'll never see me no more." |

I went down to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees Down to the crossroads Fell down on my knees I said I'm beggin' for mercy won't you take me If you please I went down to the crossroads Tried to beg a ride I went down to the crossroads Tried to beg a ride Nobody seemed to know me Everybody passed me by Take a ride Going down toward Rosedale Took Loretta by my side Going down to Rosedale Took Loretta by my side Can still buy a house there On the riverside One more time You can run, you can run Tell all my friends I'll be by You can run, you can run Tell my friends I'll be by And I'll be stayin' in the crossroads I believe I'm sinkin' down |
