When I was a little girl
I had a rag doll
Only doll I've 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

And do I love you, my oh my
River deep mountain high
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
Always followed you around
Well I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No, I'll never let you down
And it goes on and on, like a river flows
And it gets bigger baby, and heaven knows
And it gets sweeter baby, as it grows

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

I love you baby like a flower loves the spring
And I love you honey like a rockin’ loves to sing
And I love you baby like a school boy loves his pet

And I love you honey, rivers deep mountain high
Baby, baby

Do I love you, my oh my
I say rivers deep, mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
Oh, how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
