Up On Cripple Creek
[ Before The Flood ]
Bob Dylan
Before The Flood
Up On Cripple Creek
up on cripple creek
When i get off of this mountain
You know where i want to go
Straight down the mississippi river
To the gulf of mexico
To lake charles, louisiana
Little bessie, a girl that i once knew
And she told me just to come on by
If there's anything she could do
{refrain}
Up on cripple creek she sends me
If i spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak she defends me
A drunkard's dream if i ever did see one
Good luck had just stung me
To the race track i did go
She bet on one horse to win
And i bet on another to show
Odds were in my favor
I had him five to one
When that nag to win came around the track
Sure enough he had won
{refrain}
I took up all of my winnings
And i gave my little bessie half
And she tore it up and blew it in my face
Just for a laugh
Now there's one thing in the whole wide world
I sure would like to see
That's when that little love of mine
Dips her doughnut in my tea
{refrain}
Now me and my mate were back at the shack
We had spike jones on the box
She said, "i can't take the way he sings
But i love to hear him talk"
Now that just gave my heart a fall
To the bottom of my feet
And i swore as i took another pull
My bessie can't be beat
{refrain}
Now, it's hot in california
And up north it's freezing cold
And this living off the road
Is getting pretty old
So i guess i'll call up my big mama
Tell her i'll be rolling in
Bet you know, deep down, i'm kinda tempted
To go and see my bessie again
{refrain}
