Lyrics
I don't know why I love you like I do,
Affer all the changes you put me through
Used all my money and my cigarettes,
And I haven't seen hide nor hare of you yet
I wanna know won’t you tell me, I ‘d love to stay.
Chorus: Take me to the river, and wash me down.
Won't you cleanse my soul, and put my feet on the ground.
I don't know why she treated me so bad,
Think of all the things we could have had.
Love is an ocean that I can't forget,
my Sweet sixteen I will never regret.
I wanna know can you'll tell me, I love to stay.(ay)
Take me to the river, and wash me down.
Won't you cleanse my soul, and put my feet on the ground.
Hold me, love me, please me, tease me.
Till I can't, till I can't, can't take no more.
Chorus: 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 are burning on my wall.
Turn me [into] the biggest fool of them all.
wanna know, can't you tell me, Am I in love to stay?
Take me to the river; I wanna know
Want to dip me in the water; I wanna know,
Won’t you 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.
Feeling good.
