Cracklin' Rosie

Aw, Cracklin' Rosie, get on board

We're gonna ride till there ain't no more to go

Taking it slow

Lord, don't you know

I'll have me a time with a poor man's lady

Hitching on a twilight train

Ain't nothing here that I care to take along

Maybe a song

Sing when I want

Don't need to say please to no man for a happy tune

Oh, I love my Rosie child

You got the way to make me happy

You and me, we go in style

Cracklin' Rose, you're a store-bought woman

And you make me sing like a guitar humming

And hang on to me, girl

A song keeps running on

Play it now, play it now

Play it now, my baby

Cracklin' Rosie, make me a smile

Girl, if it lasts for an hour, that's all right

We got all night

Set the world right

Find us a dream that don't ask no questions, yeah

Oh, I love my Rosie child

You got the way to make me happy

You and me, we go in style

Cracklin' Rose, you're a store-bought woman

And you make me sing like a guitar humming

Hang on to me, girl

A song keeps running on

Play it now, play it now

Play it now, my baby

Cracklin' Rosie, make me a smile

Girl, if it lasts for an hour, that's all right

We got all night

Set the world right

Find us a dream that don't ask no questions, yeah
