G C G
Well I married my wife in the month of june
D G
Married her up by the light of the moon
G C G
Wailing down on Cripple Creek
D G
We've been down there about a week
G
Goin' down to Cripple Creek, goin' on a run
D G
Goin' down to Cripple Creek to have a little fun
G
Goin' down to Cripple Creek , goin' in a whirl
D G
Goin' down to Cripple Creek to see my girl
chord progression is the same throughout. played in key of G
Now Cripple Creek girls is about half grown
Jumped on the man like a dog on a bone
Roll my britches up until my knees
Gonna cross 'ol Cripple Creek when I please
chorus
Hey, I got a girl at the head of the creek
Goin up to see her about 2 times per week
Kiss her in the mouth, sweet as any wine
Wrap herself around me like a sweet potato vine
chorus
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
chorus
