The Supremes – River Deep-Mountain High lyrics

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.
