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,
All last night sat on the levee and moaned,
All last night sat on the levee and moaned,
cause it got what it takes to make a mountain men leave his home,
Crying won't help you, praying will do you no good,
Crying won't help you, praying will do you no good,
when the levee breaks, mama you got to move,
oh well, oh well, oh well...
worked on the levee, mama all night and day,
worked on the levee, mama all night and day,
worked so hard to keep that water away
wo..., wo...
Going down, going down now,
Going down, going down now,
Going down, going down now,
Going down, down, down, down, down,
oh yeah...
just got to keep that water away,
just got to keep that water away,
just got to keep that water away,
just got, just got... to keep that water away,
oh yeah...
