Lyrics When The Levee Breaks - Beth Hart

Now, 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
You got to move
You got to move

Now, all last night, I sat on the levee and moaned
All last night, I sat on the levee and moaned
Thinkin' 'bout my baby and my happy home, oh-yo

Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord

If it keeps on rainin', Lord, levee gon' break
If it keeps on rainin', Lord, levee gon' break
When the levee breaks, I'll have no words to say

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 woman leave her home
Oh well, oh well, oh well

Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Oh Lord, oh Lord, Lord

Don't it make you feel bad
When you're tryin' to find your way home
And ya don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down south, then you'll know what to do
If you're going down to Chicago
