Cottonmouth Creek Lyrics

Cottonmouth Creek

Down in the hollow where the prairie dogs play

There's a place I could take you on a warm summer day

Me and the boys will be waitin' all week

But to get there, you gotta cross Cottonmouth Creek

When the water's damned up, then that's where they'll be

The devils that chased my brothers and me

But if it ain't raining we don't even speak

Cause we know they'll be waitin' in Cottonmouth Creek

People always ask me why I go to that place

Is it for the shine, or to make my heart race?

Maybe I'm addicted to the thrills I seek

Down on Cottonmouth Creek

The water ain't deep, so you probably won't drown

But if a cottonmouth hits ya, you're gonna go down

Just across the creek and up the hill

There's a musty ol' shed and a moonshine still

And that's where you're gonna meet Chickasaw Jim

But ya gotta know the secret 'fore he lets you in

Now if your intention is to quench your thirst

You better cross back over to the other side first

People always ask me why I go to that place

Is it for the shine, or to make my heart race?

Maybe I'm addicted to the thrills I seek

Down on Cottonmouth Creek

Cuz once you cross over and you get yourself drunk

Odds are pretty good you're going home in the trunk

And if you're thinking you might come along

You better pay close attention to the words of this song

People always ask me why I go to that place

Is it for the shine, or to make my heart race?

Maybe I'm addicted to the thrills I seek

Down on Cottonmouth Creek

Down on Cottonmouth Creek

Down on Cottonmouth Creek

Down on Cottonmouth Creek
