I Wish I Was A Mole In the Ground - Traditional American Folk Song - lyrics
Banjo - tuning cCGCD relative
Mountain Banjo

I wish I was a mole in the ground 2x
If I’s a mole in the ground
I’d root that mountain down
I wish I was a mole in the ground

Oh, Kimpy wants a nine dollar shawl 2x
When I come over the hill with a 40 dollar bill
Baby where you been so long?

I been in the pen so long 2x
I been in the pen with the rough and rowdy men
Baby, where you been so long?

I don’t like a railroad man 2x
Cause a railroad man he will kill you if he can
And drink up your blood like wine.

He`ll drink up your blood like wine 2x
yes the railroad man he will kill you if he can
and drink up your blood like wine

I wish I was a lizard in the spring 2x
If I’s a lizard in the spring I’d hear my darlin’ sing
Yes, I wish I was a lizard in the spring

Kimpy, let your hair hang down Let your hair hang down 2x
Let your hair hang down and your bangs curl around
Oh Kimpy, let your hair hang down

I wish I was a mole in the ground 2x
If I’s a mole in the ground
I’d root that mountain down
I wish I was a mole in the ground
