Hey, I got a girl at the head of the creek

Goin up to see her about 2 times a week

Kiss her on the mouth, sweet as any wine

Wrap herself around me like a sweet potato vine

Goin up Cripple Creek, goin on a run

Goin up Cripple Creek to have a little fun

Goin up Cripple Creek, goin in a whirl

Goin up Cripple Creek to see my little girl

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

Goin up Cripple Creek, goin on a run

Goin up Cripple Creek to have a little fun

Goin up Cripple Creek, goin in a whirl

Goin up Cripple Creek to see my little girl

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 I'm

Goin up Cripple Creek, goin on a run

Goin up Cripple Creek to have a little fun

Goin up Cripple Creek, goin in a whirl

Goin up Cripple Creek to see my little girl.

I have so many favourites.....I have her tapes, and everything. I'm an embarrassing fan...I even have records. Buffy , I was born in 81. Fallen Angels wasn't one of your most popular, but it was one of my favourite. I Love You! I want to see you if you come to Saskatoon.Courtney

It's great to hear those songs again. I haven't heard them in maybe 25 years. And thanks for displaying the lyrics too. It is much appreciated, This is one of the songs I never understood in detail. I understood the general story in the song but couldn't hear what words she sang. Very frustrating back then. Uncle Joe is like that too. No matter how closely I listened I only got a general idea of what the song is about,while the individual words kept escaping me. Wonderful to finally catch up :)

I have the old record of this, and I grew up on it...For many years, the only recording of this I could find was the Sesame St version. I am happy I can find more than one, now. That means that Buffy is becoming more important and meaningful to people.

She's just amazing. I might have to try the mouth bow sometime, now. Thanks for sharing, Max.

No, I was wrong, Max set me straight with the video of her demonstration of the mouth bow.

Good one, for sure. Thanks for sharing, Max.If I'm not mistaken, the mouth bow is referred to as the juice harp by many of us unrefined country music appreciators.

YES, she demonstrates the Mouth Bow in another one. She's amazing how she can get the rhythms & sounds from a bow.
