You saw me crying in the Chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment now
I am happy with the Lord
Just a plain and simple Chapel
Where humble people go to prey
I pray the Lord that I'll grow stronger
As I live from day to day
I've searched and I've searched but I couldn't find
No way on earth to gain peace of mind
Now I'm happy in the Chapel
Where people are of one accord
We gather in the Chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord
I've searched and I've searched but I couldn't find
No way on earth to gain peace of mind
Now I'm happy in the Chapel
Where people are of one accord
We gather in the Chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord

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.
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey
And Wolverton Mountain protects her there.
The bears and 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 Clilfton Clowers, he may take my life
Her tender lips ....
I'm going up on Wolverton Mountain,
It's too lonely downhere below.
It's just not right to hide his dayghter
From the one who loves her so.
Her tender lips ...
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 his mountain,
I'm gonna take the girl I love.
(repeat to fade)
