The water's going down, it's a mighty tight squeeze
All alone the captain stands
Make way for the Cripple Creek Ferry
It's the second half of the cruise
The water's going down, it's a mighty tight squeeze
Make way for the Cripple Creek Ferry
Butting through the overhanging trees
Hey, hey, Cripple Creek Ferry
And walks towards the door
Hasn't heard from his deck hands
The gambler tips his hat
Hey, hey, Cripple Creek Ferry
And you know he hates to lose
Butting through the overhanging trees
Make way for the Cripple Creek Ferry
