"A comfort stream if I ever did see one" The court out in California"
'A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one" "The flood out in CA"
A broker stream if I ever did see one.
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
A drummer's dream if I ever did see one
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
A joker's dream if I ever did see, boy.
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
A junkie's dream if I ever did see one.
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
A lover's dream if I ever did see one
A drunkard's dream if ever did see one
A trucker's dream if I ever did see one.
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
Goodbye, Christmas tree
Up on Cripple Creek
I'd tug her string if I ever did see one.
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one.
Jump in front of my weenus
Gave my little busy head.
Took up all of my winnings
And I gave my little Bessie half.
That's when that little love of mine puts a b**er in my teeth.
That's when that little love of mine dips her doughnut in my tea.
Up on Purple Creek
Up on Cripple Creek
Up on Purple Creek
Up on Cripple Creek
A joker's dream if I ever did see one
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
Come on, crippled creep
Up on Cripple Creek
Saw it on another website and liked to laugh my fool head off
Put some donuts in my teeth
Dips her donut in my tea
