Up On Cripple Creek - The Band
When I get off of this mountain
You know where I want to go
Straight down the Mississippi river
To the gulf of Mexico
To lake Charles Louisiana
Little Bessie girl that I once knew
She told me just to come on by
If there's anything that she could do
Up on cripple creek she sends me
If I spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak as she defends me
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
Good luck had just stung me
To the race track I did go
I bet on one horse to win
And I bet on another to show
The odds were in my favor
I had 'em five to one
When that nag to win came around the track
Sure enough we had won
Up on cripple creek as she sends me
If I spring a leak as she mends me
I don't have to speak as she defends me
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
