Take Me to the River Lyrics

I don't know why I love you like I do
After all these changes that you put me through
You stole my money and my cigarettes
And I haven't seen hide nor hair of you yetI wanna know
Won't you tell me
Am I in love to stay?Take me to the river
And wash me down
Won't you cleanse my soul
Put my feet on the groundI don't know why she treated me so bad
Look at all those things that we could have had
Love is a notion that I can't forget
My sweet sixteen I will never regretI wanna know
Won't you tell me
Am I in love to stay?Hold me, love me, please me, tease me
Till I can't, till I can't take no more
Take me to the riverI don't know why I love you like I do
After all the things that you put me through
The sixteen candles burning on my wall

Turning me into the biggest fool of them allI wanna know
Oh won't you tell me
Am I in love to stay?I wanna know
Take me to the river
I wanna know
I want you to dip me in the water
I wanna know
Won't you wash me in the water
Wash me in the water
Wash me in the water
Won't you wash me in the water
Feeling good
