[Words and Music by Johnny Mercer and Gordon Jenkins]
Dear, I thought I'd drop a line
The weather's cool, the folks are fine
I'm in bed each night at nine
(P.S. I love you)
Yesterday we had some rain
But, all in all, I can't complain
Was it dusty on the train?
(P.S. I love you)
Write to the Browns just as soon as you're able
They came around to call
I burned a hole in the dining room table
And let me see, I guess that's all
Nothing else for me to say
And so I'll close but, by the way
Everybody's thinking of you
(P.S. I love you)
Write to the Browns just as soon as you're able
The came around to call
I burned a hole in the dining room table
And let me see, I guess that's all
Nothing else for me to say
And so I'll close but, by the way
Everybody's thinking of you
(P.S. I love you, love you, love you, love you)

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.
