Take Me To The River (Edit) (45 Version) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't know why I love her like I do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen the worst of it yet
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna know, can you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
[Chorus]
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Take me to the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down
[Bridge]
Hug me, squeeze me, love me, tease me
'Til I can't, 'til I can't, I can't take no more
[Chorus]
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Push me in the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me
[Verse 2]
I don't know why I love her like I do
All the trouble you put me through
Sixteen candles there on my wall
And here am I, the biggest fool of them all
I don't know why I love her like I do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen the worst of it yet
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna know, can you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
[Chorus]
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Take me to the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down
[Bridge]
Hug me, squeeze me, love me, tease me
'Til I can't, 'til I can't, I can't take no more
[Chorus]
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Push me in the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me
[Verse 2]
I don't know why I love her like I do
All the trouble you put me through
Sixteen candles there on my wall
And here am I, the biggest fool of them all
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna know, can you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
[Chorus]
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Dip me in the river, drop me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down
Ooh, a-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
[Outro]
Ooh, a na na na
A na na na na, ah

Ha! Na na na na, ah
Na na na na na
Na na na na
I wanna know, can you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
[Chorus]
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Dip me in the river, drop me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down
Ooh, a-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
[Outro]
Ooh, a na na na
A na na na na, ah
A na na na, hoo
A na na na, ooh

Ha! Na na na na, ah
Na na na na na
Na na na na
