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
