Take Me To The River
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 yet
I wanna know
Won't you tell me (Won't you tell me) am I in love to stay?
(Take me, take me)
Take me to the river (Take me to the river)
And wash me down (Wash me down)
Won't you cleanse my soul? (Ooh, my soul)
Get my feet on the ground (On the ground, yeah)
I don't know why you treated me so bad
After all these things that we could have had
Love is a notion that I won't forget
My sweet sixteen, now I never regret
I wanna know
Won't you tell me (Won't you tell me) am I in love to stay?
(Take me, take me)
Take me to the river (Take me to the river)
And wash me down (Wash me down)
Won't you cleanse my soul? (Ooh, my soul)
Gotta get my feet on the ground (Oh, yeah)
Hold me (Hold me)

Squeeze me (Squeeze me)
Tease me
'Till I die, 'till I die
Take me, baby, take me to the river (Take me to the river)
And wash me down (Wash me down)
