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 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 got no work to do If you're going North to Chicago. Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good... no 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' 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...
