Well, now gee
But it's great after staying out late
Walkin' my baby back home
Arm and arm over meadow and farm
Walkin' my baby back home
We go along harmonizing a song
Or I'm reciting a poem
The owls go by and they give me the eye
Walkin' my baby back home
We stop for a while, she gives me a smile
And cuddles her cheek to my chest
We start into pet, and that's when I get
Her power all over my vest
And just when I try to straighten the tie
She wants to borrow my comb
One kiss and then we continue again
Walkin' my baby back home
Well, gee but it's great after staying out late
Walkin' my baby back home
Well, arm and arm over meadow and farm
Walkin' my baby home
Well, we go along singin' a song
I'm recitin' a poem
Well, the owls go by and they give me the eye
Walkin' my baby back home
We stop for a while, she gives me a smile
And cuddles her cheek to my chest
Well, we start into pet, and that's when I get
Her power all over my vest
And just when I try to straighten the tie
She wants to borrow my comb
One kiss and then we do again
Walkin' my baby back home

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)
