I don't know why I love you like I do
After all these changes that you put me through
You stole my money and my cigarettes
And I ain't seen hide nor hair of you yet
I wanna know won't you tell me
am I in love to stay?

CHORUS
Take me to the river and wash me in the water
Take me to the river Wash me down

I don't know why you treated me so bad
Look at all these good things that we could have had
Love is a notion that I can’t forget
my sweet sixteen I will never regret
I wanna know won't you tell me, am I in love to stay?

CHORUS

Hold me Love me Squeeze me Tease Me
till I can't take no more

I dont know why I love you like I do
After all these changes that you put me through
Got sixteen candle burnin' on my wall
But I'm the biggest fool of them all
I wanta know can you tell me
Am I in love to stay?

CHORUS
