Ain't No Mountain High Enough (feat. Mahalia Barnes) - Live At The Enmore

So I gotta tell ya
I'm gonna get Mahalia to sing with me now, my daughter
Now officially, technically Mahalia shouldn't be here
'Cause she had a baby not so long ago
And the doctor said "You're not allowed to sing for eight weeks"
I think it's six
But last night, Juanita who's been singing with us, who's a fantastic singer
Got pissed at the gig and fell over and broke her arm
Not broken, but she dislocated and it's really big
And if she did any go go dancing she would be fucked

So, Mahalia, who's the boss of everything of course
This is the second boss of everything down here
Mahalia said "I know the parts"
I'm saying "Oh good, you've done it?"
Have you sang this before?
Not with you
Good, that's perfect then, I'm lookin' forward to it
Alright
(One, two, three, four)

Listen, baby
Ain't no mountain high
Ain't no valley low
Ain't no river wide enough, baby

If you need me, call me
No matter where you are
No matter how far

Don't worry baby
Just call my name
I'll be there in a hurry
You don't have to worry

'Cause baby there ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Remember the day, I set you free
I told you, you could always count on me
From that day on, I made a vow
I'll be there when you want me, some way, somehow

'Cause you know that there
Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
There ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Oh no, baby
No wind, no rain
All winter's cold
Can't stop me baby
No, no darlin'
'Cause if you're ever in trouble
I'll be there on the double
Just send for me
Oh baby

My love is alive
Way down in my heart
Even though we're miles apart
If you ever need a helping hand
I'll be there on the double
Just as fast as I can

'Cause you know that there
Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

You know that there
Ain't no mountain high enough (ain't no mountain high)
Ain't no valley low enough (no river low...)
Ain't no mountain high enough
There ain't no valley low enough (said there ain't no mountain high enough)
Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
There ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe
