CRACKLIN' ROSIE
Words and music by Neil Diamond

Oh, Cracklin Rosie, get on board
We're gonna ride
'til there ain't no road to go
Taking it slow,
Lord, don't you know?
I'm having a time with a poor man's lady
Hitching on a twilight train
Ain't nothing 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
She's got the way to make me happy
You and me, we'll 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,
Time keeps running on

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

Cracklin' Rosie, Make me smile,
Girl, if this lasts for an hour
Then that's all right
'Cause we got all night
To set the world
Just bring me a dream
That don't ask no questions
Yeah!

Oh, I love my Rosie, child
She's got the way to make me happy
You and me, we'll 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,
Time keeps running on

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