I don't know why I love you like I do
For all the bad things that you put me through
Stole my money and my cigarettes
But I haven't seen the worst of it yet
I wanna know
Can you tell me?
I'd really like to stay
Take me to the river
Drop me in the water
Take me to the river
Dip me in the water
♪
I don't know why you treat me so bad
For all the good things that we could have had
Love is an ocean and I can't forget
My sweet sixteen I'll never fret
I wanna know
Can you tell me?
I'd really like to stay
Take me to the river
Drop me in the water
Dip me in the water
Dip me in the water
Love me, squeeze me
Love me and don't resist, babe
'Til I can't, 'til I can't
'Til I can't, no
♪
I don't know why I love you like I do
For all the drama that you put me through
Sixteen candles now blowin' on the wall
Now here I am the biggest fool of all, oh
♪
Take me to the river
Take me to the river
Take me to the river
River, river, river, river
River, river, river, river
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
