I Wish I Was a Mole in the Ground

I wish I was a mole in the ground

Yes, I wish I was a mole in the ground

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

And I wish I was a mole in the ground

Oh, Tippy wants a nine dollar shawl

Yes, Tippy wants a nine dollar shawl

When I come o'er the hill with a forty dollar bill

Baby, where you been so long?

I been in the bend so long

Yes, I been in the bend so long

I been in the bend with the rough and rowdy men

Baby, where you been so long?

Oh, I don't like a railroad man

No, I don't like a railroad man

If I's a railroad man they'll kill you when he can

Drink up your blood like wine

Oh, I wish I was a lizard in the spring

Yes, I wish I was a lizard in the spring

If I's a lizard in the spring I'd hear my darlin' sing

And I wish I was a lizard in the spring

Oh Capie, let your hair roll down

Capie, let your hair roll down

Let your hair roll down and your bangs curl around

Oh Capie, let your hair roll down

I wish I was a mole in the ground

Yes, I wish I was a mole in the ground

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

And I wish I was a mole in the ground
