Lyrics i feel that im at a crossroads, all the songs with i feel that im. Robert Johnson's Take 2 lyrics transcription:īy Robert Johnson (rec, San Antonio, Texas) The "Going down to Rosedale" verse is actually lifted from Johnson's musically related "Traveling Riverside Blues" and Eric's riff also seems to be partly derived from that song. It is also interesting how Eric has substantially reworked the lyrics, a traditional blues activity shown by the variation in Johnson's own consecutive takes. Friend-boy is a dialectic substitute for boyfriend and Willie Brown was a very generous teacher of the blues to Robert. The confusion is caused by Eric mimicing Johnson's accent on the "boy". This is a common transcription of Eric's rendition, however after listening closely on the remastered "Those Were the Days" it is definitely "friend-boy" as in Johnson's take 2 version (which I'm listening to as I write this as I have at last purchased "The Complete Recordings" box set). * My original transcription used "friend boy", after viewing some sheet music I changed it to "friend poor".
