Cripple Creek

G-CG/G-7G
I've got a gal at the head of the creek
Going to see her about the middle of the week
Kisses on the mouth, just as sweet as any wine
Wrap myself around her, like a sweet potato vine

G---/G-7G
- Going up Cripple Creek, Going in a run
- Going up Cripple Creek, to have a little fun
- Going up Cripple Creek, Going in a whirl
- Going up Cripple Creek, to see my girl

I got a gal and she loves me
She's as sweet as she can be
She's got eyes of baby blue
And her love for me is true

Now the girls up Cripple Creek, about half grown
Jump on a boy like a dog on a bone
Roll my britches up to my knees
And wade old Cripple Creek when I please

Cripple Creek's wide and Cripple Creek's deep
Gonna wade old Cripple Creek before I sleep
Hills are steep and the road is muddy
And I'm so drunk I can't stand steady

Drive in a buggy, that's for me
Watch the wheels roll, merrily
Through the mud and over the stones
Buckin' horses, break good bones

I went down to Cripple Creek
To see what them gals had to eat
Got so drunk, I fell against the wall
Old corn liquor was the cause of it all

I went down to Cripple Creek
To see what them gals had to eat
What they cooked, I couldn't eat at all
Harder than a brick in the wall
