Lyrics

If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' 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
Thinkin' 'bout my baby and my happy home
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break
And all these people have no place to stay
Now look here daddy what am I to do
Now look here daddy what am I to do
I ain't got nobody to tell my troubles to
I works on the levee man both night and day
I works on the levee man both night and day
I ain't got nobody, keep the water away
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break
And the water gonna come in, have no place to stay
Written by: J McCoy, Memphis Minnie
