Dirty work at the crossroads, lord what a sad affair
Dirty work at the crossroads, lord what a sad affair
That's why you got me crying, it's more than a heart can bear

I know you didn't love me baby, and my best friend you did adore
I know you didn't love me baby, and my best friend you did adore
But you know it's ok baby I'm alright, although my poor heart is soar

Dirty work at the crossroads, lord what a sad affair
