I Wish I Was a Mole in the Ground
I wish I was a mole in the ground If I's a mole in the ground
I'd root that mountain down And I wish I was a mole in the ground Oh, Kimpy wants a nine dollar shawl When I come over the hill with a 40 dolalr bill
Baby, where you been so long? I been in the pen so long I been in the pen with the rough and rowdy men
Baby, where you been so long? I don't like a railroad man Cause a railroad man they'll kill you when he can
And drink up your blood like wine I wish I was a lizard in the spring If I's a lizard in the spring I'd hear my darlin' sing
Yes, I wish I was a lizard in the spring Come, Kimpy, let your hair roll down Let your hair roll down and your bangs curl around
Oh Kimpy, let your hair roll down
I'd root that mountain down And I wish I was a mole in the ground Oh, Kimpy wants a nine dollar shawl When I come over the hill with a 40 dolalr bill
Baby, where you been so long? I been in the pen so long I been in the pen with the rough and rowdy men
Baby, where you been so long? I don't like a railroad man Cause a railroad man they'll kill you when he can
And drink up your blood like wine I wish I was a lizard in the spring If I's a lizard in the spring I'd hear my darlin' sing
Yes, I wish I was a lizard in the spring Come, Kimpy, let your hair roll down Let your hair roll down and your bangs curl around
Oh Kimpy, let your hair roll down
