I'm the Girl From Wolverton Mountain

Yes, I'm the girl from Wolverton Mountain
I wish someone would make me their wife
I can't help being lonesome on Wolverton Mountain
When your daddy's handy with a gun and a knife

They said my lips (they said my lips) were sweeter than honey
But how do they know when no one's made the dare?
I hate the bears and the birds on Wolverton Mountain
They tell my daddy and it just ain't fair

Many a lad has tried to climb this mountain
But they never seem to reach the top
My daddy, Clifton Clowers, is always there to meet them
His gun and a knife, bring them to a stop

They said my lips (they said my lips) were sweeter than honey
But how do they know when no one's made the dare?
I hate the bears and the birds on Wolverton Mountain
They tell my daddy and it just ain't fair

Yes, I'm the girl from Wolverton Mountain
And if something don't change, I'll be an old maid all my life
But I keep hoping somebody will climb this mountain
And take me to the valley to be his wife

They said my lips (they said my lips) were sweeter than honey
But how do they know when no one's made the dare?
I hate the bears and the birds on Wolverton Mountain
They tell my daddy and it just ain't fair

There'll be somebody who really loves me and
He'll climb up on the mountain
He won't be killed by Clifton Clowers
