I've got a lover way over there on the mountain side |
|
And I know that's where I should be |
|
Don't you know |
|
I've got a lover way over there across the river wide |
|
I can hear her calling to me |
|
Oh, she's calling my name |
|
So sweet so plain I can hear her saying |
|
(Come to me, baby) |
|
I'm on my way |
|
(Come to me baby) |
|
I'm gonna stay |
|
(Come to me baby) |
|
They tell me that the river's too deep |
|
And it's much too wide |
|
Boy, you can't get over to the other side |
|
But they don't know I got to get there |
|
And hold her in my arms just one more time |
|
Like I did before when she was mine, all mine |
|
'Cause I hear her saying, |
|
(Come to me baby) |
|
I'm on my way |
|
(Come to me baby) |
|
I'm gonna stay |
|
I'm gonna get to you |
|
No matter what I have to do |
