they say don't go on wolverton mountain if you're looking for a while
cause clifton clowers has a pretty young daughter he's a mighty hand 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 clouds 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
no clifton clouds he might take my life her tender lips are sweeter than honey
and wolverton mountain protects her there
the bears and the birds tell clifton clouds if a stranger should wander there
i'm going up on wolverton mountain it's too lonesome down here below
it's just not right
to hide his dog
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 clouds
if a stranger should wander there
she'll see them
i don't care about clifton clouds i'm gonna climb up on his mountain
i'm gonna take the girl i love i don't care about clifton clouds
i'm gonna climb up on that mountain and i'll get the one i love
i don't care about clifton clouds
