Wolverton Mountain

They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain If you're lookin' for a wife 'Cause Clifton Powers has a beautiful daughter He's mighty handy with a gun and knife Her tender lips are sweeter than honey And Wolverton Mountain protects her there The bears and the birdies tell Clifton Powers If a stranger should enter there But 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 Powers, he may take my life Her tender lips are sweeter than honey And Wolverton Mountain protects her there The bears and the birdies tell Clifton Powers If a stranger should enter there But I'm goin' up on Wolverton Mountain It's mighty lonesome down here below It's just not right that he should 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 birdies tell Clifton Powers If a stranger should wander there But I don't care about Clifton Powers I'm gonna climb up on his mountain I'm gonna take the girl I love I just don't care about Clifton Powers I'm gonna climb up on that mountain I'm gonna get that one I love I don't care about Clifton Powers I'm gonna find the one I love I just don't care about Clifton Powers
