[Intro]
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, oh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
I've got a lover way over there on the mountainside
And I know that's where I should be (Got a love, got a love, got a love)
Don't you know I've got a lover way over there across the river wide (Got a love, got a love, got a love)
I can hear her calling to me (Got a love, got a love, got a love)
Oh, she's calling my name (Calling my name)
So sweet and so plain (Calling my name)

[Chorus]
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)
Oh

[Verse 2]
They tell me that the river's too deep, and it's much too wide
Boy, you can't get across to the other side
But they don't know I've got to get there and hold her in my arms just one more time (Yeah, yeah)
Like I did before when she was mine, all mine (Come on, come on, come on, yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
'Cause I hear her saying (Come on, come on, come on)
(Come to me, baby)
I'm on my way
(Come to me, baby)
I'm gonna stay
(Come to me, baby)
I'm gonna get to you
(Come to me, baby)
No matter what I have to do
(Come to me, baby)

[Verse 2]
Oh, they tell me that the river's too deep, and it's much too wide
Boy, you can't make it over to the other side
But they don't know I've got to get there and hold her in my arms just one more time (Yeah, yeah)
Like I did before when she was mine, all mine (Come on, come on, come on, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
'Cause I hear her saying (Come on, come on, come on)
(Come to me, baby)
I'm on my way
(Come to me, baby)
I'm gonna stay
(Come to me, baby)
Baby, when I get there
I ain't going nowhere
(Come to me, baby)
Ohh, 'cause a river ain't deep enough
(Come to me, baby)
A mountain ain't steep enough
(Come to me, baby)
To keep me from your side
(Come to me, baby)
[Outro]
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Come to me, baby)
