Hey, BI got a gal at the Ehead of the Bcreek,

Goin' up to see her about F#two times a Bweek.

Kiss her on the mouth, Esweet as any Bwine,

Wrap herself around me like a F#sweet potato Bvine.

BGoin up Cripple Creek, Egoin on a Brun,

goin up Cripple Creek to F#have a little Bfun.

Goin up Cripple Creek, Egoin in a Bwhirl,

goin up Cripple Creek to F#see my Bgirl.

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
