Goin' Up Shell Creek (2:43)
Chorus
Goin’ up Shell Creek
Goin’ there to stay
Goin’ up Shell Creek
To cry my blues away

Verse 1- As I went up the holler to see my love,
I saw her face from the window up above
I went through the door and what did I-spy
The one I loved with some other guy.

Chorus
Goin’ up Shell Creek
Goin’ there to stay
Goin’ up Shell Creek
To cry my blues away.

Verse 2- I never know why that you went away
And left me alone with no one to stay
So I'll just go on put miles on my shoes
Since she left me that day
A cryin' the blues.

Chorus
Goin’ up Shell Creek
Goin’ there to stay
Goin’ up Shell Creek
To cry my blues away
To cry my blues away
To cry my blues away.
