[Words and Music by Billy Reid]
I'm walking behind you
On your wedding day
And I'll hear you promise
To love and obey
Though you may forget me
You're still on my mind
Look over your shoulder
I'm walking behind
Maybe I'll kiss again
With a love that's new
But I shall wish again
I was kissing you
As I'll always love you
Wherever you go
And though we are parted
I want you to know
That if things go wrong, dear
And fate is unkind
Look over your shoulder
I'm walking behind
--- musical interlude ---
If things should go wrong, dear
And fate is unkind
Look over your shoulder
I'm walking behind

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)
