I don't know why I love her like I do

All the trouble you put me through

Take my money my cigarettes

I haven't seen the worst of it yet

I wanna know that you'll tell me

I love to stay

Take me to the river drop me

In the water

Take me to the river push me

In the water

Washing me down

Washing me

I don't know why you treat me so bad

Think of all the things we could have had

Love is a notion that I can't forget

My sweet sixteen I would never regret

I wanna know can you tell me

I'd love to stay

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

Hold me squeeze me

Love me tease me

'Til I can't 'til I can't

'Til I can't I can't take no more

Take me to the river

Drop me in the water

Push me in the water washing me down

Washing me down

I don't know why I love you like I do

All the trouble you put me through

Sixteen candles blown on my wall

And am I the biggest fool of them all

I wanna know can you tell me

I'd love to stay

Take me to the river

Drop me in the water

Drop me in the river

Drop me in the water washing me down

Washing me down
