When the Levee Breaks

If it keeps on raining' levee's going to break
 If it keeps on raining' levee's going to break
 And the water gonna come, you'll have no place to stay
 Well all last night I sat on the levee and moaned
 Well all last night I sat on the levee and moaned
 Thinkin' bout my baby and happy home
 If it keeps on raining' levee's going to break
 If it keeps on raining' levee's going to break
 and all these people will have no place to stay
 I love you Mama, but what am I too do?
 I love you Mama, but what am I too do?
 I ain't got nobody to tell my troubles to
 I works on the levee, mama, both night and day
 I works on the levee, mama, both night and day
 I ain't got nobody to keep the water away
 Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good

 When the levee breaks, mama you got to move
 I works on the levee, mama, both night and day

 I work so hard to keep the water away
 I had a women, but she wouldn't do for me
 I had a women, but she wouldn't do for me
 I'm going back to my used-to-be
 Oh mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
 It's a mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
 I'm gonna leave my baby and my happy home
