Country Joe McDonald - Standing At The Crossroads lyrics

McDonald Put my heart inside a bottle and place it on the shelf I'm savin' my love for you babe and for no one else Though miles may come between us my love for you still lives on The days gone by can never die no matter how long I'm gone Oh, I'm standin' at the crossroads just like a ship adrift at sea The blues are like a bloodhound always comin' after me Oh I'm standin' at the crossroads wonderin' which way to go The blues are like my shadow they're with me wherever I go The times aren't always gentle the people aren't always kind But behind the bend might be a friend there for you to find But it seems like all good people I meet as I'm travelin' through Just sit down to talk and before we begin They're off with their own things to do
