I don't know why I love you like I do All the changes you put me through Take my money, my cigarettes I haven't seen the worst of it yet I wanna know, can you tell me I'd really like to stay
Take me to the river Drop me in the water Take me to the river Dip me in the water Wash me down, wash me down Wash me down, wash me down
I don't know why you treat me so bad Think of all the things that we could have had Love is an ocean And I can't forget my sweet sixteen I'll never fret I wanna know, can you tell me I'd really like to stay
Take me to the river Drop me in the water Take me to the river Dip me in the water
Love me, squeeze me Love me, tease me Till I can't, till I can't Till I can't, till I can't
I don't know why I love you like I do All the trouble you put me through Sixteen candles blowin' on the wall And here I am the bigg'st fool of all I wanna know, can you tell me I'd really like to stay
Take me to the river Drop me in the water - come on, come on, come on yea... Dip me in the water Drop me in the river - come on, come on... Dip me in the water Drop me in the river Push me in the water...
