     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, Louisianna, little Bessie, a girl who I once knew.
A                     D                     E
  She told me just to come on by if there's anything that she could do.

Refrain:
A
Up on Cripple Creek, she sends me.
D
If I spring a leak, she mends me.
E
I don't have to speak, she defends me.
  F#m                   G
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.

Good luck had just stung me, to the race track I did go.
A           D                      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 them five to one.
A             D                          E
  That nag to win came around the track, sure enough she had won.

Up on Cripple Creek, she sends me.

I don't have to speak, she defends me.

A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.

  A                                D
I took up all of my winnings and I gave little Bessie half.
A                   D                   E
 She tore it up and threw it in my face just for a laugh.
    A                                         D
And there's one thing in the whole wide world I sure would like to see.
A                         D                     E
  that's when that little love of mine dips her doughnut in my tea.

A                                                D
Me and my mate we were back at the shack, we had Spike Jones on the box.
A                            D                   E
 She says, "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.

There's a flood out in California and up north it's freezing cold.
A                D              E
 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
But you know, deep down, I'm kind of tempted
   E
To go and see my Bessie again.
