Wolverton Mountain:Claude King.
#6 Rock charts, #3 Adult Contemp. & #1 Country in 1962.
INTRO:
#1.
They say don t go, on Wolverton Mountain,
if you re looking for a wife.
Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty young daughter..
he s mighty handy, with a gun and a knife.
CHORUS:
Her tender lips, (her tender lips) are sweeter than honey..
and Wolverton Mountain, protects her there.
The bears and the birds, tell Clifton Clowers,
if a stranger, should enter there.
#2.
All of my dreams, are on Wolverton Mountain.
I want his daughter, for my wife.
I ll take my chances, and climb that mountain..
though Clilfton Clowers, he might take my life.
CHORUS:
Her tender lips, (her tender lips) are sweeter than honey..
and Wolverton Mountain, protects her there.
The bears and the birds, tell Clifton Clowers,
if a stranger, should wander there.
#3.
I m going up, on Wolverton Mountain..
it s too lonesome down here below.
It s just not right, to hide his daughter,
from the one, who loves her so.
CHORUS:
Her tender lips, (her tender lips) are sweeter than honey..
and Wolverton Mountain, protects her there.
The bears and the birds, tell Clifton Clowers,
if a stranger, should wander there.
OUTRO:
But I don t care about Clifton Clowers,
I m gonna climb up on his mountain.
I m gonna take the girl I love,
I don t care about Clifton Clowers.
I m gonna climb up on that mountain,
and I ll get the one I love.
I don t care about Clifton Clowers,
I m gonna climb up on that mountain...(Fade.)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
