_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ Over this mountain, _ [D] you know where I wanna go _ _
_ Straight down the Mississippi [E] River to the Gulf of Mexico
[F#] _ _ _
[A] To Lake Charles, _ Louisiana
Little [D] Bessie girl I once knew _ _
_ [A] She told me [D] just to come on by [E] if there's anything she could [Bm] do _
_ [A] Up on Cripple Creek, she sends [D] me if I sprang a leak
She mends [E] me, I don't have to speak
She defends [F#m] me, a drunkard's dream if [G] I ever did see one _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] Good luck had you stung me, and to [D] the racetrack I did go
I _ [A] _ _ bet on one horse to win, [E] and she bet on another to show
The [A] odds were in my favor, _ [D] _ _ I had to won
And _ [A] _ that nag to [D] win came around [E] to track me, and Little Bessie had [E] won _
_ [A] Up on Cripple Creek, she sends [D] me if I sprang a leak
She mends [E] me, I don't have to speak
She defends me, [F#] a drunkard's [F#] dream if [G] I ever did see one
I _ _ _ [E] _
_ [Am] picked up all of [A] my winnings, and [D] I gave my little Bessie hands _
_ [F] She tore it up and threw it in my [E] face, just for a [E] laugh _
Now [A] there's one thing in the whole world [D] I sure do like to see _
_ [A] That's when that little [D] love of [E] mine dips a donut in my tea _ _
Going [A] up on Cripple Creek, she [D]
sends me if I sprang a leak
She mends [E] me, I don't have to speak
She defends [F#m] me, a drunkard's dream [G] if I ever did see one _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ [A] Oh no [D] no, _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] and up north it's freezing cold _ _
_ [A] And if [D] living off the road [E] is getting pretty old _
I [A] guess I'll call up my big mama, _
_ [D] _ _ and call her in _ _
But [E] you know deep down, I'm kind of tempted [E] to go see my Bessie again
Going [A] up on Cripple Creek, she sends [D] me if I sprang a leak
She mends [E] me, I don't have to speak
She defends me, [F#m] a drunkard's dream [G] if I ever did see one
Oh _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ no _ _ _ [D] _
_ [A] _ no, _ [D] _ _
