When you were a young girl
Did you have a rag doll
The only one you ever owned?
Well I love you just the way you loved that rag doll
But only now my love has grown
And it gets stronger, as the river flows
And it gets deeper, heaven knows
And it gets wider baby, as the river flows
And do I love you my oh my
Yeah, river deep mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah
If I lost you would I cry
I said oh how I love you, baby, baby, baby
When you were a young girl
Did you have a puppy
That always followed you around?
Well, I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
My love will never let you down
And it gets stronger, as the river flows
And it gets deeper baby, and heaven knows
And it gets wider baby, as the river flows
And do I love you my oh my
Yeah river deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah
If I lost you would I cry
I said oh how I love you, baby, baby, baby
♪
And 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 tie

Do I love you my oh my
