Lyrics
When (G)I get off of this mountain,
ya (C)know where I wanna go?
(Gm)Straight down the Mississippi River to the (D)Gulf of Mexico.
(D7)To (G)Lake Charles, Lou'sianna,
Little (C)Bessie, girl I once knew
(G)And she told me just to (Cmaj7)come on by,
If there's (D)anything that she could do.
(G)Up on Cripple Creek,
she sends me;
(C)If I spring a leak,
she mends me;
(D)I don't have to speak 'cause she defends me.
A (Em)drunkard's dream if I (F)ever did see one.
(G)I get off of this mountain,
ya (C)know where I wanna go?
(Gm)Straight down the Mississippi River to the (D)Gulf of Mexico.
(D7)To (G)Lake Charles, Lou'sianna,
Little (C)Bessie, girl I once knew
(G)And she told me just to (Cmaj7)come on by,
If there's (D)anything that she could do.
(G)Up on Cripple Creek,
she sends me;
(C)If I spring a leak,
she mends me;
(D)I don't have to speak 'cause she defends me.
A (Em)drunkard's dream if I (F)ever did see one.
(G)No, no, (C)hoo.
(G)Lody, lody, lody, hoo.
(G)No, no, (C)hoo.
(G)Lody, lody, lody, hoo.
