  • If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    Everybody saying this is a day only the Lord could make
    Well, I worked on the levee, mama, both night and day
    I worked on the levee, mama, both night and day
    I got to the river and I threw my clothes away
    I paid my time and now I'm good as new,
    I paid my time and now I'm as good as new.
    They can't take me back unless I want them to
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    Some of these people gonna strip you of all they can take
    I can't stop here I ain't ready to unload
    I can't stop here I ain't ready to unload
    Riches and salvation can be waiting behind the next bend in the road
    I picked you up from the gutter and this is the thanks I get
    I picked you up from the gutter and this is the thanks I get
    You say you want me to quit you, I told you, 'No, not just yet.'
    Well, I look in your eyes, I see nobody other than me
    I look in your eyes, I see nobody other than me
    I see all that I am and all I hope to be
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    Some of these people don't know which road to take
    When I'm with you, I forget I was ever blue
    When I'm with you, I forget I was ever blue
    Without you there's no meaning in anything I do
    Some people on the road carrying everything that they own
    Some people on the road carrying everything they own
    Some people got barely enough skin to cover their bones
    Put on your cat clothes, mama, put on your evening dress
    Put on your cat clothes, mama, put on your evening dress
    Few more years of hard work, then there'll be a 1,000 years of happiness
    If it keep on raining, the levee gonna break
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    I tried to get you to love me, but I won't repeat that mistake
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break
    Plenty of cheap stuff out there and still around that you take
    I woke up this morning, butter and eggs in my bed
    I woke up this morning, butter and eggs in my bed
    I ain't got enough room to even raise my head.
    Come back, baby, say we never more will part
    Come back, baby, say we never more will part
    Don't be a stranger with no brain or heart
    If it keep on raining, the levee's gonna break.
