Lyrics

[Verse 1] I don't know why I love like I do After all them changes you been Puttin' me through You stole my money and my cigarette Lord, I ain't seen, how the hell you a yet I wanna know, won't you tell me Tell me how, how can I stay Here with you? [Verse 2] I don't know why you, treat me so bad After all them good times that you 'n and me had Love that emotion that I can't forget My sweet-sixteen gives my mind a mess I wanna know, won't you tell me Tell me how, how can I stay here with you? (Oh somebody please) [Chorus] Take me to the river Wash me down Take me to the river And get my feet back on the ground Oh love me, squeeze me, hold me Baby, you can tease me 'Til I Just can't take it no more No more baby [Verse 3] I don't know why you treat me so bad After all them good times that you 'n me had Your pretty picture makes my teardrops fall I wonder who's the biggest fool of us all I wanna know, won't you tell me Tell me how, how can I stay here with you? (Oh somebody please) [Chorus] Take me to the river Wash me down Take me to the river And get my feet back on the ground now Oh my love Take me to the river Wash it down Take me to the river And get my feet back on the ground now Come on baby Take me to the river Wash me down [Outro] Take me to the river And get my feet back on the ground
