Cracklin’ Rosie by Neil Diamond

Cracklin’ Rosie, git on board
We’re gonna ride ’till there ain’t no more ta go
Takin’ it slow
Lord, don’cha know
I’ll have me a time with a poor man’s lady

Hitchin’ on a twilight train
Ain’t nothin’ here 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
You got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Cracklin’ Rosie, git on board
We’re gonna ride ’till there ain’t no more ta go
Takin’ it slow
Lord, don’cha know
I’ll have me a time with a poor man’s lady

Hitchin’ on a twilight train
Ain’t nothin’ here 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
You got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Cracklin’ Rose, you’re a store bought woman
But you make me sing like a guitar hummin’
So hang on to me, girl
Our song keeps runnin’ 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, well that’s all right
Cause we got all night
To 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  [PROSTITUTE]
But you make me sing like a guitar hummin’
So hang on to me, girl
Our song keeps runnin’ on

Play it now
Play it now
Play it now, my baby
