lyrics

★ CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS ★

THEY WOULD WALK DOWN BY THE RIVER
AND IN HIS HEART I KNOW HE LOVES HER
WISHIN' SHE WOULD COME BACK HE'S WAITIN' STILL
BUT I KNOW BETTER SHE NEVER WILL

CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
HOW CAN HE HOPE TO WIN
WHEN SHE'S KEEPIN' SCORE
OF THE GAME THEY'RE PLAYING
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
HOW CAN HE HELP BUT LOSE
THERE AIN'T MUCH LEFT FOR HIM TO CHOOSE
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS

AN' THEY WOULD TALK ABOUT LIFE TOGETHER
BUT IN HER MIND HOW LONG IS FOR EVER
HOPIN' HE COULD CONVINCE HER TO RETURN
BUT I DON'T BELIEVE HE'LL EVER LEARN

CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
HOW CAN HE HOPE TO WIN
WHEN SHE'S KEEPIN' SCORE
OF THE GAME THEY'RE PLAYIN'
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
HOW CAN HE HELP BUT LOSE
THERE AIN'T MUCH LEFT FOR HIM TO CHOOSE
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS

HE'S GONNA BUY A COAT
IT'S GOT TO KEEP HIM WARM
HE'S GOTTA HAVE THAT COAT
'CAUSE IT'S SO COLD SINCE SHE'S BEEN GONE
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS

CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
HOW CAN HE HOPE TO WIN
WHEN SHE'S KEEPIN' SCORE
OF THE GAME THEY'RE PLAYIN'
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
HOW CAN HE HELP BUT LOSE
THERE AIN'T MUCH LEFT FOR HIM TO CHOOSE
HE'S CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS

CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
CAUGHT AT THE CROSSROADS
