Wolverton Mountain Lyrics

(Merle Kilgore - Claude King)

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 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 his mountain
Though Clifton Clowers may take my life.

Her tender lips are sweeter than honey
And Wolverton Mountain protects her there
The bears and the birds tell Clifton ClowersRoy Drusky - Wolverton Mountain - http://motolyrics.com/roy-drusky/wolverton-mountain-lyrics.html
If a stranger should enter there.

Well, I'm a 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.

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 a goin' up on Wolverton Mountain
I don't care about Clifton Clowers.

I'm a goin' up on Wolverton Mountain
Even if it takes me a hundred hours.
I'm a goin' up on Wolverton Mountain
I don't care about Clifton Clowers...
