Take Me To The River - Levon Helm

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 how to have you yet

I wanna know, oh won’t you’ll tell me?

Just tell me how, how could I stay, here with you?

Oh will you take me to the river

And wash me down

Just take me to the river

Put my feet back on the ground

I don’t know why you treated me so bad

After all the good times that we could have had

Love is an ocean, that I can’t forget

My sweet sixteen I would never regret

I wanna know, oh won’t you tell me?

Tell me how, how could I stay, here with you?

You want to take me to the river

And help me wash me down

Just take me to the river

Put my feet back on the ground

Hold me, squeeze me

Hold me and you can tease me

Until I can’t take no more

Oh no more, no more, no more

I just don’t know why I love you like I do

All the changes that you put me through

Your sixteen candles they burn on my wall

Now whos the biggest fool of us all

I wanna know, oh won’t you tell me?

Just tell me how, how could I stay, here with you?

Oh will you take me to the river

And help to wash me down

Just take me to the river

Put my feet back on the ground

Oh will you take me to the river

And help to wash me down

Oh will you take me to the river

Put my feet back on the ground
