When The Levee Breaks

If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break And the water gonna come in, have no place to stay Well all last night I sat on the levee and moan Well all last night I sat on the levee and moan Thinkin bout my baby and my happy home If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break And all these people have no place to stay Now look here mama what am I to do Now look here mama what am I to do I aint 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 aint got nobody, keep the water away Oh cryin wont help you, prayin wont do no good Oh cryin wont help you, prayin wont do no good When the levee breaks, mama, you got to lose I works on the levee, mama both night and day I works on the levee, mama both night and day I works so hard, to keep the water away I had a woman, she wouldnt do for me I had a woman, she wouldnt do for me Im goin back to my used to be Is a mean old levee, cause me to weep and moan Is a mean old levee, cause me to weep and moan Gonna leave my baby, and my happy home
