Wolverton Mountain Songtext
von Nat King Cole

They say don′t go
On Wolverton Mountain
If you're lookin′ for a wife
'Cause Clifton Clowers
Has a pretty young daughter
He's mighty handy
With a gun and knife

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


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 Clifton Clowers
He might take my life

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

I′m goin' go 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


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

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 Clifron Clowers
I'm gonna climb up on that mountain
And I′ll get the woman I love
But I don′t care about Clifron Clowers
I'm gonna find the one I love
I′m gonna climb up on that mountain
