Crossroads

I went down to the crossroads and called the Devil by his name
He showed up and he took my hand, sayin': Boy, you'll never be the same
Before we go you better know there'll be hell to pay
I said: I don't give a damn, so let's be on our way
And he spun me around before I knew it
My feet had left the ground
Now when I had my fun and the day was done
I had demons swarming 'round my head
I said: Devil, you ain't said a word 'bout these awful things, I dread
He said: Boy, I'm the father of lies, believe that much to be true
'Cause you signed a deal with the Devil
Now your days are numbered through and through
He spun me around before I knew it
My feet had left the ground
And he spun me around before I knew it
My feet had left the ground
