"Mole In The Ground" lyrics

Doc Watson & Merle Watson Lyrics

"Mole In The Ground"

Well I wish I's a mole in the ground
Wish I's a mole in the ground
If I's a mole in the ground
I'd root that mountain down
And I wish I's a mole in the ground

Oh it's Timpy let your hair roll down
Little Timpy let your hair roll down
Let your hair roll down
Them pretty bangs curl all around
Little Timpy let your hair roll down

Pick it son

My Timpy want's a 9 dollar shawl
Little Timpy wants a 9 dollar shawl
When I come o'er the hill with that 50 dollar bill
Gonna bring her that 9 dollar shawl

I wish I's a lizard in the spring
Wish I'd a lizard in the spring
If I's a lizard in the spring I could hear my little darling sing
And I wish I's a lizard in the spring

Wish I's a little turtle dove
Wish I's a little turtle dove
If i's a turtle dove I'd fly away to my true love
And wish I's a little turtle dove

I don't like that railroad man
No I don't like that railroad man
That old railroad man he's gonna cheat you if he can
Down to your last lone dime

I wish I's a wooley boogie bee (Zoom zoom)
Yes I wish I's a wooley boogie bee
If I's a wooley boogie be I'd live in her cherry tree
And I wish I's a wooley boogie bee

And I wish I's a mole in the ground
Wish I's a mole in the ground
If I's a mole in the ground
I'd root that mountain down
And I wish I's a mole in the ground
