When The Levee Breaks

歌詞

If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break If it keeps on rainin', levee's 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', levee's goin' to break If it keeps on rainin', levee's 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 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, keep the water away Oh, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do no good Oh, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't 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 wouldn't do for me I had a woman, she wouldn't do for me I'm goin' back to my used to be I's a mean old levee, cause me to weep and moan I's a mean old levee, cause me to weep and moan
