Take Me to the River

Dip me in the river, drop me in the water
Think of all the things that we could have had
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Love is an ocean that I can't forget
I don't know why I love you like I do
And here am I, the biggest fool of them all
Push me in the water, drop me in the river
Washing me down, washing me down
I don't know why you treat me so bad
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Washing me down, washing me
I haven't seen the worst of it yet

Take me to the water, drop me in the river
I wanna know that you'll tell me, I love to stay
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
I wanna know that you'll tell me, I love to stay
Washing me down, washing me down
I wanna know that you'll tell me, I love to stay
My sweet sixteen, I would never regret

Push me in the river, dip me in the water
Take me to the river, dip me in the water
Take my money, my cigarettes
Hold me, squeeze me, love me, tease me
Till I can't, till I can't, I can't take no more of it

All the trouble you put me through
Sixteen candles, there on my wall
