Up on Cripple Creek sing and play along
When I get off of this mountain,
ya know where I wanna go?
Straight down the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico
to Lake Charles, Lou'siana;
little Bessie, girl I once knew.
And 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 'cause she defends me.
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
I get off of this mountain,

Straight down the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico

And 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 'cause she defends me.
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
No, no, hoo.
Lody, lody, lody, hoo.
No, no, hoo.
Lody, lody, lody, hoo.
