Sorry I don't know that song. But you might get more answers if you put the title of the song you want into the thread title (as I did for this response), but be sure to use no quotes (").
Next time use a title like:

LyrReq: I love the mountains

The LyrReq is something like a standard abbreviation here for lyric requests.

Hi reid-o. welcome to Mudcat. If you put some specific words in the title of the thread, more people are likely to respond to it. Like "LYR REQ, I love the mountains".
Having said that, do you want this old Girl Scout Camp Song thing?
I love the mountains
I love the daffodils
I love the [seaside?]
I love the rolling hills
I love the fireside,
When the lights are low

Boom-de-ah-dah, boom-de-ah-dah,
Boom-de-ah-dah, Boom (ba ba ba)
Boom-de-ah-dah, boom-de-ah-dah,
Boom-de-ah-dah, Boom

Blessings, Barbara

I knew it as follows:
I love the mountains, I love the rolling hills.
I love the flowers, I love the daffodils.
I love the fireside when all the lights are low.

Boom-de-ah-dah, boom-de-ah-dah,
Boom-de-ah-dah,(ba,ba,ba)
Boom-de-ah-dah, boom-de-ah-dah,
Boom-de-ah-dah, Boom

We used to sing

I love the mountains, and the daffodils
I love the flowers, and the rolling hills
I live to love, and love to live
fo all these wonderful things
De-ah-dah
\\: Boom-de-ah-dah, boom-de-ah-dah,
Boom-de-ah-dah, boom-de-ah-dah :\\

But this was in Finland, in the Girl Scouts - in the 70's...

This YouTube recording is really corny, but the scenery is terrific....and I really like the fact that Canadians can use a song like "I Love the Mountains" in an ad.
