NEIL DIAMOND (1970) - Cracklin Rosie

Aw, 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

We'll have me a time with a poor man's lady

Hitchin' on a twilight train

Ain't nothing here that I care to take along

Maybe a song

To sing when I want

No 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

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

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

 

SCracklin' Rosie, make me a smile

Girl, if it lasts for an hour, that's all right

cos We've got all night

To set the world right

Find us a dream that don't ask no questions
