Tim O'brien - Mole in the Ground lyrics

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 k** 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 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
