Hey, G#I got a gal at the C#head of the G#creek,

Goin' up to see her about Ebtwo times a G#week.

Kiss her on the mouth, C#sweet as any G#wine,

Wrap herself around me like a Ebsweet potato G#vine.

G#Goin up Cripple Creek, C#goin on a G#run,

goin up Cripple Creek to Ebhave a little G#fun.

Goin up Cripple Creek, C#goin in a G#whirl,

goin up Cripple Creek to Ebsee my G#girl.

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,

wade ol Cripple Creek whenever I please.

Now, Cripple Creek's wide and Cripple Creek's deep,

wade old Cripple Creek before I sleep.

Hills are steep and the roads are muddy,

and I'm so dizzy that I can't stand steady
