Levee

Well I'm the one whos always built it up,

With logs and wooden jams,

Heavy branches to hold Your waters back,

In barricaded strands,

'Cause I am like a flood plain,

That meanders across Your land,

Well I ain't no levee and I ain't no dam,

I can't hold Your waters back,

Man I'm tired of this same old heart,

Rocky dirt and stone,

Heavy boulders are laying on my mind,

And I feel them where I go,

'Cause I am made of soil,

Made of clay and silt and sand,

Well I ain't no levee and I ain't no dam,

And I can't hold Your waters back,

'Cause I am like a flood plain,

That meanders across Your land,

Well I ain't no levee and I ain't no dam,

I can't hold Your waters back.
