Girls on Cripple Creek about half grown 
Jump on a boy like a dog on a- bone 
Roll my britches up to my knees 
Wade old Cripple Creek when I please 
Goin up to Cripple Creek, goin on a run 
Goin up to Cripple Creek to have a little fun 
Goin up to Cripple Creek, goin in a whirl 
Goin up to Cripple Creek to see my girl 

Cripple Creek's wide and Cripple Creek's deep 
Wade old Cripple Creek before I sleep 
Roads are rocky and the hill side's muddy 
and I'm so drunk that I can't stand steady 
Goin up to Cripple Creek, goin on a run 
Goin up to Cripple Creek to have a little fun 
Goin up to Cripple Creek, goin in a whirl 
Goin up to Cripple Creek to see my girl
