I don't know why I love you like I do
After all them changes you been puttin' me through
You stole my money and my cigarettes,
And I ain't seen hide nor hair of you yet.

I wanna know, oh won't you tell me
Tell me how, how could I stay here with you?
Somebody, please,

Take me to the river,
And wash me down.
Take me to the river,
And put my feet back on the ground.

(Now looky here)
I don' know why you treat me so bad
After all them good times that you and me had
Love is a motion that I can't forget
My sweet sixteen keeps my mind in a sweat!

I wanna know, oh won't you tell me
Tell me how, how could I stay here with you?
Somebody help me!

Take me to the river,
And wash me down.
Take me to the river,
And put my feet back on the ground.

Oh, love me, squeeze me, hold me, and baby you can tease me
'Til I can't take no more!

I don't know why I love you like I do
After all them changes you been puttin' me through
Your pretty picture makes my teardrops falls
I wonder who's the biggest fool of us all.

I wanna know, oh won't you tell me
Tell me how, how could I stay here with you?
Somebody help me!

Take me to the river,
And wash me down.
Take me to the river,
And put my feet back on the ground.
