Take Me To The River lyrics

I don't know why I love you like I do After all the changes that you put me through You used all my money and my cigarettes And I haven't seen hide nor hair of you yet I 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 ground I 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 regret I 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 river I 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 all I wanna know, can'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
