Crippled Inside

1

"Crippled Inside" is a song by British rock musician John Lennon from his 1971 album Imagine.

Background

Lennon recorded "Crippled Inside" on 26 May 1971 at Ascot Sound Studios, during the sessions for his Imagine album. Robert Christgau believed its "good-time ricky-tick" rhythm lent the song a "folk-rock in disguise" identity. The melody of the song's bridge is very similar to the 1964 Koerner, Ray & Glover rendition of the traditional song "Black Dog".

Covers

The jam band Widespread Panic covered the song a number of times during their Summer 2007 Tour, with the band contributing a version to the benefit album Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur.
