(Chee-chee, chee-chee)
Oh, once on a tree top tall the little bird
Sang out the sweetest song I ever heard
Chee chee-oo chee
It sang to me so merrily
Chee chee-oo chee
The little birdie on a tree
Life's such a lovely thing it seemed to say
If you will only sing your cares away
Chee chee-oo chee
So merrily it went along
Chee chee-oo chee
So happily his little song
And so (chee-chee, chee-chee)
I sing (chee-chee, chee-chee)
Chee chee-oo chee
This happy, happy little thing
If you (chee-chee, chee-chee)
Feel blue (chee-chee, chee-chee)
Sing chee-oo chee
And you can be as happy too
Life's such a lovely thing it seemed to say
(chee-chee, chee-chee)
If you will only sing your cares away
(chee-chee, chee-chee)
----Instrumental Interlude ----
And so (chee-chee, chee-chee)
I sing (chee-chee, chee-chee)
Chee chee-oo chee
This happy, happy little thing
If you (chee-chee, chee-chee)
Feel blue (chee-chee, chee-chee)
Sing chee-oo chee
And you can be as happy too
Sing chee-oo chee
And you can be as happy too
Sing chee-oo chee
And you can be as happy too
(Chee-chee)

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.
