Текст песни When The Levee Breaks (Part One) - Magic Slim feat. James Cotton & Billy Branch

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, 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 trying to find your way home
You don't know which way to go?
If you're going down South
They go no work to do
If you don't know about Chicago

Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good
Now, crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move

All last night sat on the levee and moaned, Thinking about me baby and my happy home
