Oh, I wish I was a mole in the ground
I wish I was a mole in the ground
Twas as a mole in the ground I'd root that mountain down
I wish I was a mole in the ground
Oh, Tempie wants a nine dollar shawl
Oh, Tempie wants a nine dollar shawl
When I come over the hill with my forty dollar bill
Tempie, where'd you been so long
Oh, I've been in the bend so long
Yes, I've been in the bend so long
I've been in the bend with the rough and rowdy men
Tempie, where'd you been so long
Oh, I don't like the railroad man
Oh, I don't like the railroad man
Oh, the railroad man, he'll k** you when he can
He'll drink up your blood like wine
Oh, I wish I was a lizard in the spring
Oh, I wish I was a lizard in the spring
Twas a lizard in the spring I'd hear my darling sing
I wish I was a lizard in the spring
Oh, Tempie, let your hair roll down
Oh, Tempie, let your hair roll down
Let your hair roll down and you bangs curl around
Oh, Tempie, let your hair roll down
I wish I was a mole in the ground
Oh, I wish I was a mole in the ground
Twas a mole in the ground I'd k** []
I wish I was a mole in the ground
