Take Me to the River (Live at Central Park)

Lyrics

[Chorus: Dolette McDonald & Nona Hendryx] Take me to the river, wash me in the water Take me to the river, wash me in the water, the water [Verse 1] I don't know why I love her like I do All the trouble you put me through Take my money, my cigarettes I haven't seen the worst of it yet [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I wanna know, can you tell me Am I in love to stay? [Chorus: David Byrne with (Dolette McDonald & Nona Hendryx)] Take me to the river, drop me in the water (Take me to the river, drop me in the water) Dip me in the river, drop me in the water (Put me in the river, drop me in the water, the water) Washing me down [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] 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 I haven't seen the worst of it yet [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I wanna know, can you tell me? Am I in love to stay? [Chorus: David Byrne with (Dolette McDonald & Nona Hendryx)] Take me to the river, drop me in the water (Take me to the river, drop me in the water) Dip me in the river, push me in the water (Push me in the river, push me in the water) [Bridge] Hug me, squeeze me, love me, tease me Till I can't, till I can't, I can't take no more [Chorus: David Byrne with (Dolette McDonald & Nona Hendryx)] Take me to the river, drop me in the water (Take me to the river, drop me in the water) Dip me in the river, push me in the water (Dip me in the river, push me in the water, the water) [Verse 3] I don't know why I love her like I do All the changes you put me through Sixteen candles there on my wall And here am I, the biggest fool of them all [Pre-Chorus] I wanna know, can you tell me? Am I in love to stay? [Chorus: David Byrne with (Dolette McDonald & Nona Hendryx)] Take me to the river, drop me in the water (Take me to the river, drop me in the water) Dip me in the river, drop me in the water (Put me in the river, drop me in the water, the water) [Outro: Dolette McDonald & Nona Hendryx] Take me to the river, wash me in the water Take me to the river, drop me in the water, the water Take me to the river, drop me in the water Take me to the river, drop me in the water, the water Take me to the river, wash me in the water, the water Take me to the river, wash me in the water Take me to the river, wash me in the water, the water Take me to the river, wash me in the water, the water
