Way Over There - Intellectual

I've got a lover way over there on the mountainside

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

And I can hear her calling to me

Oh, she's calling my name

So sweet and so plain

And I can hear her saying

(Come to me, baby)

I'm on my way

(Come to me, baby)

And I'm gonna stay

(Come to me, baby)

They tell me that the river's too deep

And it's much too wide

Son, you just can't make it 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

Oh, she's a calling my name

(Come to me, baby)

So sweet and so plain

(Come to me, baby)

And I can hear her saying

(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)

(I need you, baby, I need you) Hold on

They tell me that the river's too deep

And it's much too wide

Son, you just can't make it 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

And baby when I get there

Girl, I ain't going nowhere

Girl, I got to tell you that the river ain't deep enough

The mountain ain't steep enough to keep me from your side

I tell you I'm on my way

And I'm gonna stay

Hold on, baby

Hold on

Hold on, baby

Let me tell you that the river ain't deep enough

The mountain ain't steep enough
