River Deep Mountain High

(album: Friday On My Mind - 1967)

When I was a little boy
I had a rag doll
The only doll I've ever owned
Now I love you just the way I loved that rag doll
M'only now my love has grown

And it gets stronger, in every way
And it gets deeper, let me stay
And it gets higher, day by day

Oh, do I love you my oh my
Yeh, river deep mountain high, yeh, yeh, yeh
If I lost you would I cry
Oh, how I love you baby, baby, baby

When you were a young girl
Did you have a puppy
Did it follow you around
Well, I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No I'll never let you down

'Cause it grows so long, like a river flows
And it gets bigger baby, heaven knows
And it gets stronger baby, as it grows

Oh, do I love you my oh my
Yeh, river deep, mountain high, yeh, yeh, yeh
Do I love you, will I die
Oh, how I love you baby, baby, baby

I love you baby like a flower loves the spring
And I love you baby like a robin loves to sing
And I love you baby like a school boy loves his pie
And I love you baby, river deep mountain high
Oh, you got to
Oh, do I love you my oh my
Yeh, river deep, mountain high, yeh, yeh, yeh
Do I love you 'til I die
Oh, do I love you baby, baby, baby

And again
And again
