Chorus: Going up Cripple Creek, Going on a run. Going up Cripple Creek To have some fun. The girls up Cripple Creek, About half grown, They jump on a man Like a dog on a bone. (Chorus) Easiest money That ever I made I made up Cripple Creek, Laying in the shade. (Chorus) Run, run, fun, fun. Going up Cripple Creek To have some fun. (Comment by Mrs. Fendley: "I can't remember all the verses to that. There's about ten or twelve.") Also found in Brown, Vol. III, #299. |
