When The Levee Breaks lyrics

Song information

Artist: Great White
Album: Great Zeppelin: A Tribute To Led Zeppelin

Lyrics

If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break, (x2)
When the levee breaks I'll have 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
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well
Don't it make you feel bad
When you're tryin' to find your way home
You don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down south
They go no work to do
If you don't know about chicago
Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move
All last night sat on the levee and moaned, (x2)
Thinkin' about me baby and my happy home
Going, going to chicago... going to chicago... sorry but I can't take you..
Going down... going down now... going down...
