But now the seeds are planted and the gates are opened wide
The old ways are forgotten there is no place left to hide
And the legacy I'm leaving you is not very hard to find
You'll see it all around you at this crossroads of time
In the sweet soil its a growing at the crossroads of time

I can see her lookin fast in her faded jeans
She's a hard lovin woman got me feelin mean
Sometimes I think its a shame when I get feelin better when I'm feelin no pain
Sundown you better take care if I find you been creepin round my back stairs
Sundown you better take care if I find you been creepin round my back stairs
