Rainy Day Crossroad Blues Lyrics - Stampede - The Doobie Brothers

Tom Johnston 

The sky is fallin' and the ground is reachin' up 

The river's goin' by and the water's 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, don't 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 

Won't let a body concentrate 

Gotta get some peace that way 

Waitin' for that water risin', think I'll put my guitar in my boat 

'Cause I'm floatin' to the nearest levy just to lay down 

In that sand

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 can't take it no more
