They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain |
|
If you're looking for a wife |
|
'Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty young daughter |
|
He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife |
|
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey |
|
And Wolverton Mountain protects her there |
|
The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clowers |
|
If a stranger should enter there |
|
All of my dreams are on Wolverton Mountain |
|
I want his daughter for my wife |
|
I'll take my chances and climb that mountain |
|
Though Clifton Clowers, he might take my life |
|
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey |
|
And Wolverton Mountain protects her there |
|
The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clowers |
|
If a stranger should wander there |
|
I'm going up on Wolverton Mountain |
|
It's too lonesome down here below |
|
It's just not right to hide his daughter |
|
From the one who loves her so |
|
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey |
|
And Wolverton Mountain protects her there |
|
The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clowers |
|
If a stranger should wander there |
|
I don't care about Clifton Clowers |
|
I'm gonna climb up on his mountain |
|
I'm gonna take the girl I love |
|
I don't care about Clifton Clowers |
|
I'm a gonna climb up on that mountain |
|
And I'll get the one I love |
