Way up on Bear Creek watching the sun go down.

Well, it makes me feel like I'm on my last go round.



The water on Bear Creek tastes like cherry wine.

One drink of that water you stay drunk all the time



If you stay on Bear Creek you'll get like Jesse James.

If you stay on Bear Creek you'll get like Jesse James.

You'll take two  pistols, and rob that Bear Creek train.



I'm going high high up on some lonesome hill.

I'm going high high up on some lonesome hill.

Look down on Bear Creek, where my good gal used to live.
