Deal at the Crossroads

Lyrics

[Verse]
Shadow cast long on the dusty road
Feelin' the weight of the heavy load
Met a man who had eyes of coal
Sold my soul down in a deep dark hole

[Verse 2]
Whisky burnin’ on my cracked lips
Sweat and fear on my fingertips
He grinned wide like a crescent moon
In the devil's hands
I sealed my doom

[Chorus]
Deal at the crossroads no turnin' back
Heart's beatin' fast like a railroad track
Signed in blood with a broken pen
A life of chains for a moment's zen

[Verse 3]
Guitar strings screamin' in the night
Soul’s pierced by the crimson light
Playin' the blues for my wicked gain
Caught forever in the devil’s chain

[Bridge]
Moon hid behind a stormy shroud
Darkness wrapped in a ghostly cloud
Now every note is a cry for grace
Lost my way in this cursed place

[Chorus]
Deal at the crossroads no turnin' back
Heart's beatin' fast like a railroad track
Signed in blood with a broken pen
A life of chains for a moment's zen
