When I get off of this mountain, you know where I want to go?ADE
Straight down the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico.AD
To Lake Charles, Louisianna, little Bessie, a girl who I once knew.ADE
She told me just to come on by if there's anything that she could do.A
Up on Cripple Creek, she sends me.D
If I spring a leak, she mends me.E
I don't have to speak, she defends me.F#mG
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
