D5    A5        D5               A5
They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain 
                        D5
If you're looking for a wife 
       A5      D5                          A5
'Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty young daughter 
                                   D5
He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife. 
 
CHORUS: 
           A5                    D5
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey
           D5  E5                    A5     A5 
And Wolver ton mountain protects her there 
                   D5                  A5 
{NC} The bears and birds tell Clifton Clowers
                           D5 
If a stranger should enter there. 
    A5    D5                       A5
All of my dreams are on Wolverton Mountain
                           D5 
I want his daughter for my wife
     A5      D5                      A5 
I'll take my chances and climb that mountain
                                      D5 
Though Clifton Clowers, might take my life. 
 
CHORUS 
    A5    D5               A5
I'm goin' up on Wolverton Mountain
                               D5 
It's too lonesome down here be-low
     A5       D5                 A5 
It's just not right to hide his daughter 
                           D5
From the one who loves her so. 
 
CHORUS 
            A5      
But I don't care about Clifton Clowers
          D5 
I'm gonna climb up on his mountain
          A5 
I'm gonna take the girl I love
        D5           
I don't care about Clifton Clowers
            A5 
I'm a gonna climb up on that mountain
         D5 
And I'll get the one I Iove {fade}
        A5
I don't care about Clifton Clowers....
