When the Levee Breaks |
| If it keeps on raining the levee’s gotta break |
| If it keeps on raining the levee’s gotta break |
| And if the levee breaks I got no place to stay |
| Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan x2 |
| Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home, |
| 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. |
| Crying won’t help you, praying won’t do you no good |
| Crying won’t help you, praying won’t do you no good |
| 'cause when the levee breaks, you got to move |
| Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan x4 |
