I'd like to dedicate this song to little Junior Parker
A cousin of mine who's been gone on, but we'd like to
Kinda carry on in his name, by saying
I don't know why I love you like I do
After all the changes that you put me through
You stole my money, my cigarettes
And I haven't seen half, no, half you yet
I wanna know, won't you tell me?
Am I in love to stay? Yeah, hey, yeah, yeah
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 16, I will never regret
I wanna know, won't you tell me?
Am I in love to stay? Hey, yeah
ย
Hold me, hold me
Please me, tease me
'Til I can't, 'til I can't
Can't take no more of this
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 16 candles are burnin' on my wall
Turn me into the biggest fool of them all
I wanna know, can't you tell me?
Am I in love to stay? Hey, hey, hey
I wanna know
Take me to the river
I wanna know
Won't 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? Hey, hey
Feelin' good
