If it keeps on rainin', the levee's goin' to break
If it keeps on rainin', the levee's goin' to break
When the levee breaks, we'll have no place to stay
ย
Me no never taught you to weep and moan
Me no never taught you to weep and moan
Got what it takes to make a mountain man move his home
Oh well, oh well, oh well, oh well
ย
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, ain't gonna know what to do
If you don't know Chicago
Ah, ah, ah
ย
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
ย
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
ย
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
ย
Ah, ah, ah
Going to Chicago
ย
Not to New Orleans, baby
Sick, can't take it with me, baby
ย
Going down, going down now
Going down, going down now
Going, going, going down now
I can't take it with me
