Take Me to the River

I don't know why I love you like I do
After the things that you put me through
You stole my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen haven't heard of you

I wanna know, won't you tell me?
I'd really love to stay

Take me to the river
And wash me down
She cleans my soul
Put my feet on the ground

I don't know why you treated me so bad
After the things we could have had
Love is emotion that I can't forget
My sweet sixteen will never regret

Oh wanna know, won't you tell me?
I'll be in love to stay, yeah

Take me to the river, oo-hoo, uh-huh

Hold me, love me
Please me, tease me
Till I can, till I can, whoa!

I don't know why I love you like I do
After the changes you put me through
Your sixteen candles burn on my wall
They tell me who made the fool of them all

I wanna know, won't you tell me?
I'll be in love to stay

Take me to the river, hey-ey-ey
Take me to the river, hum-huh
Take me to the river, oh-oh-oh
Walk me to the water, hey-ey-ey-yeah

Walk me to the water, walk me to, hum-huh-huh
Take me to the river, hum-huh-huh
Just walk me on the water, yeah-yeah
Walk me on the water, hum-huh-huh
Take me to the river, hum, take me to the, take
Take me to the river
