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

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

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

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 will be somebody

Who really loves me and

He'll climb up on the mountain
