Subject: RE: lyrics, bill monroe's: that old crossroad
Michelle, I realise it's been a few weeks since you asked for this, but are these the words you are after?

The Old Crossroads (Bill Monroe)

Oh my brother take this warning Don't let Old Satan hold your hand You'd be lost in sin Forever You'd never reach the promised land

Chorus The Old Crossroads now is waiting Which one are you going to take One leads down to destruction The other to the Pearly Gates

One road leads up to heaven The other goes on down below Jesus Our saviour will protect you He'll guide you by the Old Crossroads

(Chorus)

Soon your life will be over You'll have to face the Old Crossroads Will you be ready then my brother To shun the one that goes down below

(Chorus)
