NEIL YOUNG LYRICS - Cripple Creek Ferry

"Cripple Creek Ferry"



Hey, hey

Cripple Creek ferry

Butting through

the overhanging trees

Make way

for the Cripple Creek ferry

The waters going down

it's a mighty tight squeeze.



All alone the captain stands

Hasn't heard

from his deck hands.

The gambler tips his hat

and walks towards the door.

It's the second half

of the cruise.

And you know he hates to lose.



Hey, hey Cripple Creek ferry

Butting through

the overhanging trees

Make way

for the Cripple Creek ferry

The waters going down

it's a mighty tight squeeze.
