lirik lagu rich krueger - me & mr. johnson

Loading...

down in mississippi where even trains turn into ghosts
and the coffin maker’s lost her mind
i was found at midnight where two roads met
when a man dressed to his t~~th kinda corporealized
i thought, “is this the devil i’ve heard so much about”
he smiled even brighter than the moon
“no, i’m robert johnson”, is all his eyes said
funny who you might just find yourself with
standing at the crossroads
me & mr. johnson alone together
standing at the crossroads

my head filled up with questions like a child’s pail
left forgotten in the rain, undisturbed
“when charlie patton played for you
did it all make sense?”
“when charlie sang could you ever
even understand a word”
“was it worth your soul to get to play that way?”
“should i make the devil the same deal?”
his eyes grew dark as diamonds
and without using words
he schooled my soul it ain’t the answers
it’s the questions
that moves you through the crossroads
it’s the questions not the answers
that kick up your gravel
at the crossroads
and as quick as he appeared mr. johnson was gone
and i knew right then i had been a fool
how could i have been so stupid?
how could i have been so wrong?
no one living should never try to ask the dead
to tell their tales out of school

when the moon peers through the bars of cook county jail
to sweet home mississippi you’ll be bound
a breeze will swell and thicken with the sounds he made
songs that taste like bones a black dog buried in the ground
if you dare to listen hard and long and lonesome enough
you’ll feel a jewel form behind your eyes
all the diamonds you’ll ever need to mine
are waiting for you strewn among the gravel
there at the crossroads
they’re hidden deep in mr. johnson’s hat
there at the crossroads

me & mr. johnson at the crossroads
