When The Levee Breaks |
|
If it keeps on rainin\', levee\'s goin\' to break, |
|
If it keeps on rainin\', levee\'s goin\' to break, |
|
When The Levee Breaks I\'ll have no place to stay. |
|
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan, |
|
Lord, mean old levee taught me to weep and moan, |
|
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home, |
|
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well. |
|
Don\'t it make you feel bad |
|
When you\'re tryin\' to find your way home, |
|
You don\'t know which way to go? |
|
If you\'re goin\' down South |
|
They go no work to do, |
|
If you don\'t know about Chicago. |
|
Cryin\' won\'t help you, prayin\' won\'t do you no good, |
|
Now, cryin\' won\'t help you, prayin\' won\'t do you no good, |
|
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move. |
|
All last night sat on the levee and moaned, |
|
All last night sat on the levee and moaned, |
|
Thinkin\' \'bout me baby and my happy home. |
|
Going, go\'n\' to Chicago, |
|
Go\'n\' to Chicago, |
|
Sorry but I can\'t take you. |
