When The Levee Breaks

A Perfect Circle

If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break And the water gonna come in, have no place to stay Well all last night I sat on the levee and moan Well all last night I sat on the levee and moan Thinking about my baby and my happy home If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break And all these people have no place to stay Now look here mama what am I to do? Now look here mama what am I to do? I ain't got nobody to tell my troubles to I works on the levee mama both night and day I works on the levee mama both night and day I ain't got nobody, keep the water away Oh crying won't help you, praying won't do no good Oh crying won't help you, praying won't do no good When the levee breaks, mama, you got to lose I works on the levee, mama both night and day I works on the levee, mama both night and day I works so hard, to keep the water away I had a woman, she wouldn't do for me I had a woman, she wouldn't do for me I'm going back to my used to be It's a mean old levee, cause me to weep and moan It's a mean old levee, cause me to weep and moan Gonna leave my baby, and my happy home --- When the Levee Breaks - A Perfect Circle
