Up on Cripple Creek: The Band.
Intro A D A D E
A D
When I get off of this mountain, you know where I want to go?
A D E
Straight down the Mississippi river, to the Gulf of Mexico.
A D
To Lake Charles, Louisiana, little Bessie, girl that I once knew.
A D E
She told me just to come on by, if there's anything she can do.
CHORUS:
A D
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me.. if I spring a leak she mends me.
E F#m G
I don't have to speak, she defends me.. a drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
#2.
A D
Good luck had just stung me, to the race track I did go.
A E
She bet on one horse to win and I bet on another to show.
A D
The odds were in my favor, I had 'em five to one..
A D E
when that, nag to win, came around the track, sure enough we had won.
CHORUS:
A D
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me.. if I spring a leak she mends me.
E F#m G
I don't have to speak, she defends me.. a drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
#3.
A D
I took up all of my winnings, and I gave my little Bessie half.
A D E Bm6
And she tore it up and threw it in my face, just for a laugh.
A D
Now, there's just one thing in the whole wide world, I sure would like to see..
A D E
that's when that goooood love of mine, dips her doughnut in my tea. Hee, hee.
CHORUS:
A D
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me.. if I spring a leak she mends me.
E F#m G
I don't have to speak, she defends me.. a drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
#4.
A D
Now, me and my mate were back at the shack, we had Spike Jones on the box.
A D E
She said, "I can't take the way he sings, but I love to hear him talk."
A D
Now, that just gave my heart a throb, to the bottom of my feet.
A D E
And I swore as I took another pull, my Bessie can’t be beat.
CHORUS:
A D
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me.. if I spring a leak she mends me.
E F#m G
I don't have to speak, she defends me.. a drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
A D A D A D A D
Loooow, looow, hoo..loodle, loodle, loodle hooo. Loooow, looow, hoo..loodle, loodle, loodle hooo.
#5.
A D
There's a flood out in California, and up North it's freezing cold.
A D E Bm6
And this, living on the road, is getting pretty old.
A D
So, I guess, I'll call up my big mama, tell her I'll be rolling in.
A D E
But you know, deep down, I'm kind of tempted, to go and see my Bessie, again.
CHORUS:
A D
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me.. if I spring a leak she mends me.
E F#m G
I don't have to speak, she defends me.. a drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
