	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;

	Em	A
	Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan.

	It's got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home.

Ah, well, oh well,	oh well.

	E	B
Don't it	make you feel bad when you're try	in' to find your way home,

	A	B	D	E
You	don't know which way to	go.

	B
If you're goin' down South, they got	no work to do,

	A	B	D	E
If you	don't know about	Chicag	o.

	A	Em
Goin', goin'	to Chi	cago,

	A	Em
goin' to Chicago,		sorry but I can't take you.

	A	Em
Going down, go	ing	down now,

	A
goining down, going down now, going down.

Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good;

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;

all last night, sat on the levee and moaned.

Thinkin' 'bout my baby and my happy home.
