Wolverton Mountain

They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain
If you're looking for a wife
'Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty young daughter
And 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 might take my life
I'm goin 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

[  repeat & fade ]

I don't care about Clifton Clowers
I'm gonna climb up on his mountain
I'm goin' to find the one I love
