Why did you say goodbye to me?
Now I'm as lonely as could be
And as I feel a teardrop fall
I hear your footsteps down the hall
Walkin' away from me
Why did you say goodbye?
Why did you make me cry?
Now, every day I wonder why
Why, oh why oh why oh
Footsteps, footsteps, footsteps, footsteps
You're such a haunting memory
I pray that you'll come back to me
But as I say my evening prayers
I hear your footsteps on the stairs
Walkin' away from me
Why did you say goodbye?
Why did you make me cry?
Now, every day I wonder why
Why, oh why oh why oh
Footsteps, footsteps, footsteps, footsteps
Footsteps, footsteps, footsteps

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)
