[Verse 1]
If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break
If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break
When the levee breaks I'll have no place to stay
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
Oh, mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well

[Verse 2]
Don't it make you feel bad
When you're trying to find your way home
You don't know which way to go?
If you're going down South
They got no work to do
If you don't know about Chicago

[Verse 3]
Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good
Now, crying won't help you, praying 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
Thinking about me baby and my happy home

[Outro]
Going, going to Chicago
Going to Chicago
Sorry but I can't take you
Going down, going down now, going down
