Mole in the Ground Lyrics by The Holy Modal Rounders

The Holy Modal Rounders 2

1965

[Verse 1]
I wish I was a mole in the ground
I wish I was a mole in the ground
A mole in the ground, I’d tear the mountain down
I wish I was a mole in the ground
[Verse 2]
I wish I was a lizard in the spring
I wish I was a lizard in the spring
‘F I’se a lizard in the spring, I’d hear my darlin’ sing
I wish I was a lizard in the spring
[Verse 3]
Now don’t you marry your railroad man
Don’t you marry your railroad man
A railroad man will kill you when he can
And drink up your blood like wine
[Verse 4]
Alberta let your hair hang low
Alberta let your hair hang low
Let your hair hang low and don’t go slow
Alberta let your hair hang low
