Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
Knowing many, loving none
Bearing sorrow havinââ¬â¢ fun
But back home heââ¬â¢ll always run
To sweet Melissa, mmm
Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same
And no one knows the gypsyââ¬â¢s name
No one hears his lonely sigh
There are no blankets where he lies
In all his deepest dreams the gypsy flies
With sweet Melissa, mmm
Again the morningââ¬â¢s come
Again heââ¬â¢s on the run
Sunbeams shining through his hair
Appearing not to have a care
Pick up your gear and gypsy roll on, roll on
Crossroads, will you ever let him go? Oh, Lord
Will you hide the dead manââ¬â¢s ghost?
Or will he lie, beneath the clay?
Or will his spirit roll away?
But I know that he wonââ¬â¢t stay without Melissa
Yes, I know that he wonââ¬â¢t stay without Melissa
Yeah, just wonââ¬â¢t stay
