✍️ **Lyrics:**
[Verse 1]
Well, I met Papa Legba, down where the roads collide,
Cane in his hand, dark shadow in his stride.
He said, “What you lookin’ for, what’s your heavy load?”
I said, “I need a way out, just show me the road.”

[Chorus]
Legba, Legba, open the gate for me,
I’m stuck in this world, but I got a spirit to set free.
Legba, Legba, down by the crossroad sign,
You hold the keys to the other side of the line.

[Verse 2]
His voice like molasses, slow and smooth in the night,
He said, “You want freedom, but it comes at a price.”
He tipped his old hat, with a grin so wide,
"Your soul for some answers, you ready for the ride?”

[Chorus]
Legba, Legba, don’t you play no game,
You got the power, and you know my name.
Legba, Legba, take this curse off me,
But what you takin’ in return, Papa, tell me what you see.

[Bridge (Slide Guitar Solo)]

[Verse 3]
I felt the cold wind, as the night turned still,
He said, “The deal’s made now, just sign with your will.”
With trembling hands, I signed on the line,
Now I walk with Legba, in the shadow’s time.

[Chorus]
Legba, Legba, the gatekeeper’s grin,
You let me out, but the darkness creeps in.
Legba, Legba, I got what I need,
But I’ll never be free from the devil’s own creed.

[Outro]
So if you’re ever lost, where the crossroads lay,
Remember Papa Legba’s just a prayer away.
But think twice, my friend, ‘fore you call his name,
You might get the answer, but you’ll never be the same.
