I got a girl and she loves me
she's as sweet as sweet can be
she's got eyes of baby blue
makes my gun shoot straight and true
Refrain:
going up cripple creek going in a run
going up cripple creek to have some fun
Cripple creek's wide and cripple creek's deep
i'll wade ole cripple creek before i sleep
roll my breeches to my knees
i'll wade ole cripple creek when i please
Refrain
I went down to cripple creek
to see what them girls had to eat
i got drunk and fell against the wall
old corn liquor was the cause of it all
Refrain
