The Doors

The Doors were an American rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, California, with vocalist Jim Morrison, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger. The band took its name from Aldous Huxley's book The Doors of Perception, the title of which was a reference to a William Blake quotation: "If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite." They were among the most controversial rock acts of the 1960s, due mostly to Morrison's wild, poetic lyrics and charismatic but unpredictable stage persona. After Morrison's death in 1971, the remaining members continued as a trio until finally disbanding in 1973. more »

I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
Down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
I said, 'I'm beggin' for mercy, [Incomprehensible] if you please?"

I went down to the crossroads, tried to beg a ride
Down to the crossroads, tried to beg a ride
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by
I wanna take a ride

Going down to Rosedale, take [Incomprehensible] by my side
Going down to Rosedale, take [Incomprehensible] by my side
Can still buy a house baby, on the riverside
One more time

You can run, you can run, tell my friends I'll be by
You can run, you can run, tell my friends I'll be by
And I'm standing at the crossroads, believe I'm sinking down
