Now, I love you just the (Eb)way I loved that rag doll,

but on ly now my love has grown.

And it gets strong er

like in a ev ’ry way,

and it gets deep er,

and let me say,

and it gets high er, er, ba by,

day by (Bb)day.

(Ab)Do I love you, my oh my?

(Bb)Riv er deep, moun tain high.

(Ab)If I lost you, would I cry?

(Bb)Oh, how I love you, ba by,

ba by, ba by, ba by.

When you were a young boy, (Eb)did you have a pup py

that al ways fol lowed you a round?

Well, I’m gon na be as (Eb)faith ful as that pup py.

You know I’ll nev er let you down.

’Cause it grows strong er

like in a riv er flows,

and it gets big ger,

and heav en knows,

and it gets sweet er, er, ba by,

I love you, ba by like a flow er loves the spring;

and I love you, ba by, like the rob in loves to sing.
