Cracklin’ Rosie Lyrics

Yea, Cracklin' Rosie, get on board
We're gonna ride 'til there ain't no more to go
Takin' it slow, Lord don't you know
Happily a time when the poor man's let be

Hitchin' on a twilight train
Ain't nothin' here that I care to take along
Maybe a song to sing when I'm long
Don't mean to say please, said old man, I'm happy too

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
You make me sing like a guitar hummin
Hang on to me, girl, our song keeps runnin' on
Play it now, Play it now, Play it now my lady!

Cracklin Rosie, make me smile
Darl'in if lasts for an hour well that's alright we got all night
To set the world right
Find us a dream and don't ask no questions Yea!

Chorus

(in Fishman's version:)
Bah, bah bah bah bah
Bah, bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah
Bah, bah bah bah bah
Bah, bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah BAH

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
