Lyrics
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 I sing 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 in love to stay? Hey, hey Take me to the river And 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 in love to stay? Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Hold me, love me, please me, tease me 'Til I can't, 'til I can't take no more 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 The sixteen candles burning on my wall Turning me into the biggest fool of them all I wanna know Oh, won't you tell me Am I in love to stay? I wanna know Take me to the river I wanna know I want you to 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 Feeling good
