Oh, Cracklin’ Rosie, get on board. We’re gonna ride till there ain’t no more to go,
taking it slow and Lord, don’t you know, have me a time with a poor man’s lady.
Hitching on a twilight train, ain’t nothing there that I care to take along,
maybe a song to sing when I want. Don’t need to say please to no man for a happy tune.

Oh, I love my Rosie child, she got the way to make me happy. You and me, we go in style.
Cracklin’ Rosie you’re a store-bought woman, you make me sing like a guitar humming,
So hang on to me, girl, our song [bad word] 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 to set the world right. Find us a dream that don’t asks no questions, yeah.
