When The Levee Breaks

If it keeps on raining levee's going to break If it keeps on raining levee's going to break When the levee breaks have no place to stay Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan 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 trying to find your way home you don't know which way to go? When you're going down south and there's no work to do And you're going on to Chicago Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good When the levee breaks, mama, you got to go All last night sat on the levee and moaned All last night sat on the levee and moaned Thinking about my baby and my happy home Going - going to Chicago Going to Chicago Sorry, but I can't take you Going down - going down, now Going down - going down, now Going down Going down Going down Going down Going down - going down, now Going down - going down, now Going down - going down, now Going down Going dow-, dow-, dow-, dow-, down, now
