Hey, FI got a gal at the Bbhead of the Fcreek,

Goin' up to see her about Ctwo times a Fweek.

Kiss her on the mouth, Bbsweet as any Fwine,

Wrap herself around me like a Csweet potato Fvine.

FGoin up Cripple Creek, Bbgoin on a Frun,

goin up Cripple Creek to Chave a little Ffun.

Goin up Cripple Creek, Bbgoin in a Fwhirl,

goin up Cripple Creek to Csee my Fgirl.

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
