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