River Deep Mountain High - Long John Baldry

When you were a little girl

You had a rag doll

The only doll that you’ve ever owned

Now you love me just the way you loved that rag doll

And only now my love has grown

And it gets higher babe, in every way

And it gets deeper babe, just let me say

And it gets stronger babe, day by day

Do I love you my oh my

River deep and a mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah

If I lost you would I cry

I would, baby, baby, baby

When you were a little girl

You had a puppy

That always followed you around

Well I’m gonna be as faithful as that puppy

And no, I’ll never let you down

Cause it goes on and on, like a river flows

And it gets higher baby, as my love grows

And it gets stronger baby, well I told you so

Do I love you my oh my

River deep and a mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah

If I lost you would I cry

I would, baby, baby, baby

I love you, baby, like the flowers, loves the spring

And I love you baby, like a Robin, loves to sing

And I love you, baby like a schoolboy loves his prank

And I love you baby, river deep and mountain high

I said a baby

Oh my baby

You know I love ya

I said I love ya

Do I love you my oh my

River deep and a mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah

Even if I should lose ya, would I cry

I would, baby, baby, baby
