From the recording The Meeting of the Hats (Live)
Lyrics
I got a girl and she loves meShe’s as sweet as sweet can beShe’s got eyes of baby blueMakes my gun shoot straight and true.Goin’ up Cripple Creek goin’ in a runGoin’ up Cripple Creek to have some fun.Cripple Creek’s wide and Cripple Creek’s deepI’ll wade old Cripple Creek before I sleepRoll my breeches to my kneesI’ll wade ol’ Cripple Creek when I pleaseI went down to Cripple CreekTo see what them girls had to eatI got drunk and fell against the wallOld corn likker was the cause of it all
