I don’t know why
I love you like I do
After all the changes
You put me through
You stole my money
And my cigarettes
And I haven’t seen
The worst of it yet
I wanna know
Can you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
Take me to the river
And wash me down
Won’t you cleanse my soul
And put my feet on the ground
Oh take me to the river right now
I don’t know why
You treat me so bad
Think of all the things
That we could have had
Love is a notion
That I can’t forget
Sweet sixteen
I will never regret
I wanna know
Can you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
Take me to the river
And dip me down
Won’t you cleanse my soul
And put my feet on the ground
Oh take me to the river right now
Hold me in
Then I know I’ll be there
Hold me in and wash me down
Then I know I’ll be there
Take me to the river
And wash me down
Won’t you cleanse my soul
And put my feet on the ground
Oh take me to the river right now
