They say don't go on wolverton mountain<br>If you're looking for a wife<br>'cause clifton clowers has a pretty young daughter<br>He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife.<br><br>Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br>And wolverton mountain protects her there<br>The bears and birds tell clifton clowers<br>If a stranger should wander there.<br><br>All of my dreams are on wolverton mountain<br>I want his daughter for my wife<br>I'll take my chances and climb that mountain<br>Though clifton clowers, he may take my life.<br><br>Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br>And wolverton mountain protects her there<br>The bears and birds tell clifton clowers<br>If a stranger should wander there.<br><br>I'm going up on wolverton mountain<br>It's too lonesome down here below<br>It's just not right to hide his daughter<br>From the one who loves her so<br><br>Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br>And wolverton mountain protects her there<br>The bears and birds tell clifton clowers<br>If a stranger should wander there<br><br>But I don't care about clifton clowers<br>I'm gonna climb up on his mountain<br>I'm gonna take the girl I love<br>I don't care about clifton clowers<br>I'm a gonna climb up on that mountain<br>And I'll get the one I iove<br>I don't care about clifton clowers,<br>I'm gonna find the one I love,<br>I don't care about clifton clowers<br>I'm gonna find the one I love (repeat and fade)
