When I was a little girl, I had a rag doll;
The only doll I ever owned
Now I love you just the way I loved that rag doll;
But only now, my love has grown
And it gets stronger in every way
And it gets deeper, let me say
And it gets higher day by day

(Chorus)

And do I love you my oh my?
Yeah, river deep mountain high Yeah, yeah, yeah
And if I lost you, would I cry?
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby

When you were a young boy, did you have a puppy;
That always followed you around?
Well I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No, I'll never let you down
'Cause it goes on and on like a river flows
And it gets bigger baby, and heaven knows
That it gets sweeter baby, as it grows

(Chorus)

And do I love you my oh my?
Yeah, river deep mountain high Yeah, yeah, yeah
And if I lost you, would I cry?
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby

Well I love you baby like the flowers love the spring
And I love you baby like the bluebirds love to sing
And I love you baby like a schoolboy loves his pie
And I love you baby river deep and mountain high

(Chorus)
And do I love you my oh my?
Yeah, river deep mountain high Yeah, yeah, yeah
And if I lost you, would I cry?
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
