[Lyric] Take Me To The River Live At Blues Alley 2021 Master (Eva Cassidy)

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna know, boy, won't you tell me?
Tell me, how can I stay here with you?

[Chorus]
Won't you take me to the river?
Wash me down
Take me to the river
Put my feet back on the ground, yeah

[Verse 2]
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?
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna know, boy, won't you tell me?
Tell me, how can I stay here with you?

[Chorus]
Won't you take me to the river?
Wash me down
Take me to the river
Put my feet back on the ground, yeah

[Bridge]
Hold me, squeeze me
Love me and you can tease me
'Til I can't take no more
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna know, won't you tell me?
Tell me, how can I stay here with you?
[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
I'd like to, uh, dedicate this song to my mom and dad, they're here tonight
Dad taught me how to play guitar
