The Creek Will Still Be Running - Johnny Paycheck

Well the creek will still be running seven days a week

Your leaving me won’t change a doggone thing

The roof on the kitchen will still have the same old leak

And after you’re gone the creek will still be running seven days a week

After all these years all of a sudden you think you’re gonna be boss

But you should know me well enough by now to know I ain’t never gonna ride that

hoss

There’ll never be a day if I got something to say I won’t stand right up and

speak

After you’re gone the creek will still be running seven days a week

In the fall of the year the leaves on the trees out back will still turn brown

And in the heat of the summer the well will still go dry

The boards on the floor just inside the door will still have the same old squeak

After you’re gone the creek will still be running seven days a week

After all these years all of a sudden you think you’re gonna be boss

But you should know me well enough by now to know I ain’t never gonna ride that

hoss

There’ll never be a day if I got something to say I won’t stand right up and

speak

And after you’re gone the creek will still be running seven days a week

Yeah after you’re gone the creek will still be running seven days a week
