Songtexte: Eva Cassidy. Live at Blues Alley. Take Me to the River.

I don?t know why I love you like I do
After all the changes you put me through?
Stole my money, my cigarettes
I haven?t seen the worst of it yet

I wanna know boy, won?t you tell me
Tell me, how can I stay here with you?

Won?t you take me to the river?
Wash me down
Take me to the river
Put my feet back on the ground, yeah

I don?t know why you treat me so bad
After all the good times that we?ve had?
You?re sixteen candles that burn on my wall
Now who?s the biggest fool of us all

I wanna know, won?t you tell me
Tell me, how can I stay here with you?

Won?t you take me to the river?
Wash me down
Take me to the river
Put my feet back on the ground, yeah

Hold me, squeeze me, love me
And you can tease me
Till I can?t take it no more
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

I don?t know why I love you like I do
After all the changes you put me through?
Love is a notion I can?t forget
My sweet sixteen, I would never regret

I wanna know, won?t you tell me
Tell me, how can I stay here with you?

Won?t you take me to the river?
Wash me down
Take me to the river
Put my feet back on the ground, yeah

Take me to the river
Wash me down
Won?t you take me to the river
Put my feet back on the ground, yeah
