Ballads from Deep Gap is the second studio album by American folk music artist Doc Watson and Merle Watson, released in 1967. The title references the town Watson was born in — Deep Gap, North Carolina.

Two of the songs were co-written with fiddler Gaither Carlton, Doc's father-in-law.

Writing for Allmusic, music critic Jim Smith wrote of the album "The largely overlooked Ballads from Deep Gap features a great song list and some of Doc & Merle Watson's best early playing."
