Mississippi Sands - For Goodness Sake

My wallet is empty, my shoes have got holes
worn out and wasted, my body's grown old
Tired but restless I take to the road
got no one to follow and no one to hold

I came to the crossroads where all must decide
between straight and narrow and crooked and wide
What road should I follow, what path shall I take?
I'll be bad as I want to for goodness sake

The king's in the closet, sayin his pray'rs
to a god up in heaven who's sellin his shares
to the pope in the steakhouse for all you can eat
the queen and the devil both got dirty feet

I came to the crossroads where all must decide
between straight and narrow and crooked and wide
What road should I follow, what path shall I take?
I'll be bad as I want to for goodness sake

Got no one to cry for my soul when I die
I won't go to heaven, that sweet by and by
I'll go where I want to, the devil may care
If yaun't to you're welcome to visit me there

I stand at the doorways of goodness and sin
the angels sing to me and beckon me in
the devils are hungry, they set me on fire
If i said 'I'll be good' that'd make me a liar

I came to the crossroads of darkness and light
to choose straight up evil or crooked but right
what road should I follow, what path shall I take?
I'll be bad as I want to for goodness sake
