Over the mountain Across the sea There's a girl, she's waiting for me Cross over the river, beyond every cloud She's passed the wind that's blowing loud Over the mountain, a girl waits for me Tell all the sands and every blade of grass Please tell the wind to let my love pass Over the mountain, a girl waits for me Tell the moon up in the sky Tell the birds that fly by That over and over and over the mountain My love waits for me Into each dark and starry night Oh, what a mystery that's sealed so tight Over the mountain, a girl waits for me

Brief biography courtesy of Wikipedia
Johnnie & Joe was an American R&B vocal duo from The Bronx. Johnnie Louise Richardson (1945-1988) and Joe Rivers began singing together in 1957 and released several singles on Chess Records. Three of the songs hit the U.S. singles charts. "Over the Mountain, Across the Sea" went to #3 on the R&B chart and #8 on the Billboard Hot 100, and "I'll Be Spinning", went Top 10 R&B, both in 1957. "My Baby's Gone", a #15 R&B hit, was their last, although "Over the Mountain, Across the Sea" returned to the pop charts in 1960, peaking at #89 the second time around. All of the Chess singles were leased from J&S Records, whom Johnnie & Joe were under contract to.
