Wolverton Mountain Lyrics

They say don't go,
On Wolverton Mountain,
If you're lookin' for a wife.
'Cause Clifton Clowers,
Has a pretty young daughter,
He's mighty handy,
With a gun and knife.
Her tender lips,
(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,
(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.

I'm goin' go up,
On Wolverton Mountain,
It's just too lonesome,
Down here below.
It's just not right,
To hide his daughter,
From the one,
Who loves her so.
Her tender lips,
(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.

I don't care about Clifton Clowers.
I'm gonna climb up on his mountain.
[Fade.]
I'm gonna take the girl I love.
I don't care about Clifton Clowers.
