Crossroads Curse

Down by the crossroads, where the shadows creep,
I made a deal with the devil, now I can’t find sleep.
He whispered sweet promises, said I’d play like a king,
But the price of my soul, oh, it’s a heavy thing.

Chorus:
Crossroads curse, got me in a bind,
Dancing with demons, losing my mind.
Every note I play, echoes of despair,
In the dark of the night, I can feel him there.

Verse 2:
The moonlight’s a witness to the sins that I’ve sown,
With every strum of my guitar, I feel more alone.
He took my heart and my spirit, left me with this pain,
Now I’m haunted by the memories, like a ghost in the rain.

Chorus:
Crossroads curse, got me in a bind,
Dancing with demons, losing my mind.
Every note I play, echoes of despair,
In the dark of the night, I can feel him there.

Bridge:
Oh, the whiskey’s my comfort, but it don’t ease the ache,
I’m trapped in this twilight, can’t escape my fate.
With every passing hour, I hear the devil’s call,
He’s laughing in the shadows, waiting for my fall.

Verse 3:
I see the faces of the lost, they’re calling out my name,
Cursed to wander forever, in this wicked game.
The crossroads are my prison, the blues are my chains,
I’m a prisoner of my choices, drowning in my pain.

Chorus:
Crossroads curse, got me in a bind,
Dancing with demons, losing my mind.
Every note I play, echoes of despair,
In the dark of the night, I can feel him there.

Outro:
So if you wander down that road, beware of what you seek,
The devil’s always waiting, and he’s never weak.
With a guitar in my hand and a heart full of strife,
I’ll sing my blues forever, paying the price of life.
