Lyrics Great White – When The Levee Breaks
Text:
if it keeps on raining levee’s going to break
if it keeps on raining levee’s going to break
when the levee breaks i’ll have no place to stay
mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
it’s got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home
don’t it make you feel bad
when you’re trying to find your way home
you don’t know which way to go?
if you’re going down south
they got no work to do
if you going on to chicago
crying won’t help you praying won’t do you no good
crying won’t help you praying won’t do you no good
when the levee breaks mama you got to move
all last night i sat on the levee and moaned
all last night i sat on the levee and moaned
thinking about my 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 going down now
going down going down
going down going down
going down going down now
going down going down now
going down going down now
going down going down down down down down
it’s got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home
don’t it make you feel bad
when you’re trying to find your way home
you don’t know which way to go?
if you’re going down south
they got no work to do
if you going on to chicago
crying won’t help you praying won’t do you no good
crying won’t help you praying won’t do you no good
when the levee breaks mama you got to move
all last night i sat on the levee and moaned
all last night i sat on the levee and moaned
thinking about my 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 going down now
going down going down
going down going down
going down going down now
going down going down now
going down going down now
going down going down down down down down
