STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS As recorded by Dr. Feelgood (From the 1991 Album PRIMO) [Chorus] Well I’m standing at the crossroads again With an empty heart and a dollar ten Maybe I’ll bump into some famous names Robert Johnson Elmore James I’m standing at the crossroads again [Verse 1] Well I woke up this morning like I usually do My baby was nowhere around I looked in the mirror I looked in the hall In my slippers and my dressing gown There were lipstick traces on the bedroom door Goodbye she wrote I don’t want you no more I guess I’m not the man she was looking for But just the man she found [Chorus] Well I’m standing at the crossroads again With an empty heart and a dollar ten Maybe I’ll bump into some famous names Robert Johnson Elmore James I’m standing at the crossroads again [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] Here I am on my own again Where did I go wrong this time I treat them good like a gentleman should And I never ever step out of line I’m no kid I know my way around Six foot six I weigh 200 pounds But I can’t hold no romance down Maybe I should give up trying [Chorus] Well I’m standing at the crossroads again With an empty heart and a dollar ten Maybe I’ll bump into some famous names Robert Johnson Elmore James I’m standing at the crossroads again [Outro] Well I’m standing at the crossroads again Well I’m standing at the crossroads again

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le sentiment de solitude et de désespoir d’un homme qui se retrouve à un carrefour dans sa vie, avec un cœur vidé et peu de ressources. Après une rupture, il se questionne sur ses choix et sur ce qu’il aurait pu faire différemment pour conserver l'amour. Malgré ses bonnes intentions et sa volonté d’être un bon partenaire, il semble condamné à faire face à des échecs répétitifs. Dans ce moment de solitude, il espère croiser des personnalités célèbres, ce qui rajoute une touche d’ironie à sa situation. Le tout donne une ambiance de réflexion mélancolique sur les relations amoureuses et les regrets.
