Take Me to the River Lyrics

I dont 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, am I in love to stay?
(Take me, take me)
Take me to the river and wash me down
Won't you cleanse my soul get my feet on the ground
I dont know why you treated me so bad
Look at 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....

Bridge:
Hold me love me squeeze me tease me till I die till I de
Repeat verse one, then chorus, then
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Dip me in the water
Dip me in the water baby
