Take Me to the River

I′d like to dedicate this song to Little Junior Parker A cousin of mine who's gone on But we′d like to kinda carry on in his name, by singing I don't know why I love you like I do After all the 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 allowed to stay here, here, hey Take me to the river Wash me down Won′t you cleanse my soul Put my feet on the ground I don't know why she treated me so bad After all the things that we could have had Love is a notion that I can′t forget My sweet sixteen, I will never regret I wanna know Won't you tell me Am I allowed to stay here, hey, hey Yeah Hold me, love me Please me, tease me ′Til I can't, ′til I can't Can't take anymore, hey Take me to the river I don′t know why I love you like I do After all the things that you put me through There′s sixteen candles that burn on my wall Turning me into the biggest fool of them all I wanna know Won't you tell me Am I allowed to stay here, here, hey Yeah I wanna know Take me to the river I wanna know Won′t you dip me in the water I wanna know Won't you wash me in the water Wash me in the water Wash me in the water Won′t you wash me in the water Hey, hey Feelin' good
