[Jason Manns, Richard Speight, Jr, Rob Benedict, Mark Pellegrino, Jensen Ackles - Up On Cripple Creek lyrics]
When I get off of this mountain
You know where I wanna go?
Straight down the Mississippi River
To the Gulf of Mexico
To Lake Charles, Louisiana
Little Bessie, girl that I once knew
She told me just to come on by
If there's anything that she could do
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
And to the race track I did go
She bet on one horse to win
And I bet on another to show
The odds were in my favor
I had him five to one
When that nag to win came around the track
Sure enough, we had won
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
Well, I took up all of my winnings
And I gave my little Bessie half
She tore it up and blew it in my face
Just for a laugh
Now there's just one thing in
The whole wide world i would like to see
That's when that little love of mine
She dips her doughnut in my tea
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
Now me and my mate we head back at the shack
We got 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 oh Lord, she can't
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
There's a flood out in California
Up north it's freezing cold
This living on the road is getting pretty old
So I guess I'll call on my big mama
Tell her I'll be rolling in
But, you know deep down, I'm kind of tempted
To go and see my Bessie again, yeah
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
You know where I wanna go?
Straight down the Mississippi River
To the Gulf of Mexico
To Lake Charles, Louisiana
Little Bessie, girl that I once knew
She told me just to come on by
If there's anything that she could do
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
And to the race track I did go
She bet on one horse to win
And I bet on another to show
The odds were in my favor
I had him five to one
When that nag to win came around the track
Sure enough, we had won
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
Well, I took up all of my winnings
And I gave my little Bessie half
