Chorus:
G         Am            C
Hey, hey Cripple Creek Ferry,
          G         C             G
butting through the overhanging trees
                  Am            C
Make way for the Cripple Creek Ferry
                   G
The water's going down,
        C              G Am C
it's a mighty tight, squeeze

G
All alone the captain stands,
hasn't heard from his deck hands
             C
The gambler tips his hat, and walks
             G
towards the door
          D7                 Am
It's the second half of the cruise,
          C               G  Am C
and you know he hates to lose
