Led Zeppelin - When The Levee Breaks

If it keeps on rainin' levee's goin' to break

When the levee breaks I'll have no place to stay

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 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

When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move

All last night sat on the levee and moaned

Thinkin' 'bout my baby and my happy home

Going to Chicago, sorry but I can't take you

Going down, going down now, going down...
