"When The Levee Breaks"
(written by Kansas Joe McCoy & Memphis Minnie)
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
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
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
Thinking about my 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
Mean old levee
taught me to weep and moan
Mean old levee taught
me to weep and moan
Mean old levee taught me to
weep and moan
