Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah.
The gypsy flies from coast to coast, Knowing many, loving none, Bearing sorrow, having fun. But, back home he'll always run, To sweet Melissa. Mmmm-hmmm. Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same. And no one knows the gypsy's name, And no one hears his lonely sighs, There are no blankets where he lies. Lord, in his deepest dreams the gypsy flies, With sweet Melissa. Mmmm-hmmm. Again, the mornin's come. Again, he's on the run. A sunbeam's shinin through his hair. Fear not to have a care. Well, pick up your gear and gypsy roll on. Roll on. Crossroads, will you ever let him go? Lord, Lord. Or will you hide the dead man's ghost? Or will he lie, beneath the clay? Or will his spirit float away? But, I know that he won't stay, Without Melissa. Yes, I know that he won't stay, yeah, Without Melissa. Lord, Lord, it's all the same. Mmmmm-hmmmmm. |

Well, I've got to run to keep from hiding, And I'm bound to keep on riding. And I've got one more silver dollar, But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no, Not gonna let 'em catch the Midnight Rider. And I don't own the clothes I'm wearing, And the road goes on forever, And I've got one more silver dollar, But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no Not gonna let 'em catch the Midnight Rider. And I've gone by the point of caring, Some old bed I'll soon be sharing, And I've got one more silver dollar, Repeat three times and Fade But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no Not gonna let them catch the Midnight Rider. |

Once I was glad
Always happy, never sad And every day Seemed like Sunday And although things were slow And never seemed to have no dough Somehow I never once got lonely Ya see the fact is more or less You're gamblin' with your own happiness And most all your would be friends Turn out so phony Oh, but times they change and rearrange And I'll sing to the Queen of Hearts Don't know where to start Or how to stop And after things have come and gone Left me feelin' that I've done so wrong Oh, I've wasted so much time Feelin' guilty And as I watch you sit across the room Beautiful as the flowers bloom T'leave it lay just one day Oh, brother you're gonna come back to find it gone I love you Queen of Hearts Tell me not to stop Just tell me where to start Where now baby, tell me where to start And after all that we've been through I find that when I think of you A warm soft wind runs through and through And in my heart there's only you And I will always keep on trying To gather this strange piece of mind Without it there'd be lonely me and Oh, darlin' lonely you I love you Queen of Hearts Don't tell me when to stop Tell me when to start Tell now baby Tell me when to start |

Well I've been out walking
I don't do that much talking these days These days, these days I seem to think a lot About the things I forgot to do, for you And all the times I had a chance to Well I've had a lover I don't think I'll risk another these days These days, these days I seem to be afraid Live the life that I've made in song But it's just that I have been losing, so long These days I sit on the corner stone Count the time in quarter tones of ten, my friend And now I believe I want to see myself again These days I sit on the corner stone Count the time in quarter tones till ten, my friend Please don't confront me with my failure I'm aware of them |

Got on a bus in Memphis,
Destination Rome. Georgia ain't no paradise but a place I just call home. I sat next to a broken hearted bride She was cryin', tryin' so hard to hide her selfish sorrow. I tried to get her talkin' She didn't have much to say She asked me for a map to death row But I didn't know the way She had lost a million in the game One look out the window at the pine trees and the rain It wasn't her day. Multicolored lady you ain't like no rainbow I've ever seen Multicolored lady Angry red, passion blue, but mostly shades of green Midnight came and brought more rain, nothing seemed to ease her pain. The hours that we talked seemed like minutes all in vein. I watched as her tears kept runnin' wide Bye and bye and bye, way back after a while She started smilin'. Multicolored lady You ain't like no rainbow I've ever known. Multicolored lady Come go with me, I'll take you to my home Oh, by the way, I'm bound for Rome. |

People say that you're no good,
But I wouldn't cut you loose, baby, if I could. Well, I seem to stay down on the ground, Baby, I'm too far gone to turn around. Oh, if only you would make up your mind, Take me where you go, you're leaving me behind. Lord, you got those come and go blues, Lord, you got those some and go blues, Yes, you do, oh and you got me feelin' like a fool. Round 'n' 'round, 'round we go, Don't ask me why I stay here, I don't know. Well maybe I'm a fool to care, Without your sweet love, baby I would be nowhere. Here I'll stay, locked in your web, Till that day I might find somebody else. I don't know just when that would be, I don't know, I can't say as I can't see. Lord you got me feeling like a fool. Sail on, darlin', sail on Woman, you go your way, and I'll go mine Seems to me, that I once heard That everything is finally cured by time So sail on, darlin', sail on Lord, I wish you good luck And I'll see you when you come next time.
