When I was a little girl I had a rag doll 
The 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 

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
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
And it gets sweeter baby as it grows 

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

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 schoolboy loves his bag 
And I love you baby river deep mountain high
