[C]
[A]
When I get off of this [D] mountain, [A] you know where I want to [A]
go.
Straight down the Mississippi River [E] to the Gulf of Mexico, [A] to Lake Choloene and the [D] little
messy girl I once knew.
[A] She told me just to come on by [E] if there's anything she could do.
[A] Up on Cripple Creek, she saved [D] me if I sprang a leak.
She defends [E] me, I don't have to speak.
She defends [F#m] me, a drunkard dream [G] if I ever did stay warm.
[A] Good luck had just stung me, to [D] the racetrack I'd go.
[E] [A] She bet on [B] one horse to [Em] win and I bet on the [E] other to show.
[A] The awful
[D] I had on 5 to 1, when that [A] nagging wind came around [E] the track, so I know she had won.
[A] Up on Cripple Creek, she [D] saved me if I sprang a leak.
She [E] defends me, I don't have to speak.
She defends [F#m] me, a drunkard dream [G] if I ever did stay warm.
Well [A] I took up all of my winnings and [Dm] I gave my little bet to [D] her.
She tore [D] it up and threw it in my face [E] just for a laugh.
[A] Well if there's one thing [G] in the whole wide world I'd like to see,
[A] it's when that little, [D] little hunk of mine [E] sticks a thorn in my cheek.
[A] Up on Cripple Creek, [F#] she saved me if I sprang a leak.
She defends [E] me, I don't have to speak.
She defends [F#m] me, a drunkard dream [G] if I ever did stay warm.
[A] Well Yan, my babe, was back on the track, Spike Jones was on the block.
She said I can't stand the way he sings, [E] but I love to hear him talk.
[A] That just made my heart [F#] a-throb [D] to the bottom of my feet.
[A] And as far as I took another blow, [E] that she can't be beat.
[B] [A] Up on Cripple Creek, she saved [D] me if I sprang a leak.
She defends [B] me, I don't have to speak.
She defends [F#m] me, a drunkard dream [E] if I ever did stay [G] warm.
[A] In California, [D] and up north it's a freezing cold.
[A] And this [D] living on the road [E] is getting pretty [Em] old.
[A] So I guess I'll call my big mama, [E] and [D] tell her I'll be rolling in.
[A] But you know, deep [D] down, I'm kind of tempted [E] to go to see my Bessie [F#] again.
[A] Up on Cripple Creek, she saved me if I sprang [D] a leak.
She [A] defends me, [E] I don't have to speak.
She [F#m] defends me, a drunkard dream [G] if I ever did stay warm.
Now let's yodel like old people [A] did.
Yodel-a [D]-doodle-doo, [A] yodel-a-doodle [D]-doo,
[A] yodel-a-doodle [E]
-doo, [A] yodel-a-doodle-doo,
[D] yodel-a-doodle [E]-doo, [Am] yodel-a [D]-doodle-doo,
[A] yodel [D]-a-doodle-doo, [A] yodel-a-doodle [E]-doo.
[A] Up on Cripple Creek, up on Cripple [Am] Creek,
[E] up on Cripple Creek,
[A] up on Cripple Creek.
