Drunken Creek is a stream in eastern Bollinger County in the U.S. state of Missouri. It is a tributary of Hog Creek.

The stream headwaters arise adjacent to Missouri Route B about three miles northeast of Marble Hill. The stream flows south to south-southeast and crosses under Missouri Route 34 east of Marble Hill then turns southeast passing under Route U to its confluence with Hog Creek about 1.5 miles north of Laflin. The source area is at 37°20′42″N 89°55′50″W / 37.34500°N 89.93056°W / 37.34500; -89.93056 and the confluence is at 37°18′00″N 89°53′08″W / 37.30000°N 89.88556°W / 37.30000; -89.88556.

Drunken Creek most likely was so named on account of frequent flash flooding.
