Tom johnston
The sky is fallin and the ground is reachin up
The rivers goin by and the waters gettin high and I feel like givin up
Standin in the downpour with these rainy day crossroad blues
Got those woods on my left, city on my right, dont wanna sleep alone tonight again
Hole in my coat, hole in my shoes, sittin in mobile singin the blues about you
Company people call my house most every day
Wont let a body concentrate
Gotta get some peace that way
Waitin for that water risin, think Ill put my guitar in my boat
cause Im floatin to the nearest levy just to lay down
In that sand
Just pickin wild berries, gettin stung by honey bees
The lord above and the devil below havin a fight inside of me
Thinkin bout my gun, maybe that will set me free
cause thunder and lightnin are trapped inside of me
Innocent darlin why you treat your daddy this way?
The price of the question is a mighty hard price to pay
cause you brought these rainy day crossroad blues my way
I cant take it no more
