[Al Green:] I don’t know why I love you like I do After all these changes you put me through You stole my money and my cigarettes And I haven’t seen hide nor hair of you yet
I wanna know Won’t you tell me Am I in love to stay? Hey hey
[Al Green, BB King:] Take me to the river And wash me down Won’t you cleanse my soul Put my feet on the ground
[Lenny Kravitz:] I don’t know why she treated me so bad Look at all those 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? Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Al Green, BB King:] Take me to the river And wash me down Won’t you cleanse my soul Put my feet on the ground
[Sheryl Crow, Lenny Kravitz, Al Green, BB King:] Hold me, love me, please me, tease me Till I can’t, till I can’t take no more Take me to the river
[BB King, Lenny Kravitz:] I don’t know why I love you like I do After all these changes you put me through The sixteen candles burning on my wall Turning me into the biggest fool of them all
I wanna know Oh won’t you tell me Am I in love to stay?
[Al Green, BB King:] Take me to the river And wash me down Won’t you cleanse my soul Put my feet on the ground
One more time!
[Al Green, BB King:] Take me to the river And wash me down Won’t you cleanse my soul Put my feet on the ground Take me to the river
