Mole In The Ground

Wish I was a mole in the ground

Wish I was a mole in the ground

Mole in the ground, I'd root that mountain down

Wish I was a mole in the ground

Wish I was a lizard in the spring

Wish I was a lizard in the spring

A lizard in the spring, I'd hear my true love sing

If I was a mole in the ground



Don't marry a railroad man

Don't marry a railroad man

A railroad man gonna kill you if he can

And drink up your blood like wine



Baby wants a nine dollar shawl

Baby wants a nine dollar shawl

When I come around the hill with my twenty dollar bill

She says honey where you been so long

Now, baby where you been so long

Honey where you been so long

Said I been to Caroline to see that gal of mine

That's where I been so long

I said, honey where'd you stay last night

Baby where'd you stay last night

Said I stayed around the bend

With some rough and rowdy men

And now I'm goin back again
