Went to see a movie show
Found myself an empty row
Thought the show was just alright
Same old Saturday night
Then I made the usual stop
Coffee at the coffee shop
Friendly face nowhere in sight
Same old Saturday night
I really thought the papers I bought
Would help me forget you for a while
Believe me honey the funnies weren't funny
They didn't even make me smile
How I wish you'd lift the phone
Fun is fun but not alone
'Til you let me hold you tight
Same old Saturday night
---- Instrumental Interlude ----
I really thought the papers I bought
Would help me forget you for a while
Believe me honey the funnies weren't funny
They didn't even make me smile
How I wish you'd lift the phone
Fun is fun but not alone
'Til you let me hold you tight
Same old Saturday night
Only your face can help me erase
That same old Saturday night

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)
