D    A7        D               A7
They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain 
                        D
If you're looking for a wife 
       A7      D                          A7
'Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty young daughter 
                                   D
He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife. 
 
CHORUS: 
           A7                    D
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey
           D7  E7                    A     A7 
And Wolver ton mountain protects her there 
                   D                  A7 
{NC} The bears and birds tell Clifton Clowers
                           D 
If a stranger should enter there. 
    A7    D                       A7
All of my dreams are on Wolverton Mountain
                           D 
I want his daughter for my wife
     A7      D                      A7 
I'll take my chances and climb that mountain
                                      D 
Though Clifton Clowers, might take my life. 
 
CHORUS 
    A7    D               A7
I'm goin' up on Wolverton Mountain
                               D 
It's too lonesome down here be-low
     A7       D                 A7 
It's just not right to hide his daughter 
                           D
From the one who loves her so. 
 
CHORUS 
            A7      
But I don't care about Clifton Clowers
          D 
I'm gonna climb up on his mountain
          A7 
I'm gonna take the girl I love
        D           
I don't care about Clifton Clowers
            A7 
I'm a gonna climb up on that mountain
         D 
And I'll get the one I Iove {fade}
        A7
I don't care about Clifton Clowers....
