I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long
I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long
I rolled this mornin', didn't know right from wrong
If the river was whiskey, it’s bed is my home
If the river was whiskey, it’s bed is my home
I would dive to the bottom, never would I come up
Hey baby, you wanna have some fun?
Hey baby, you wanna have some fun?
Come over here, I’ll show you how it’s done.

When the Levee Breaks

If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break
When the levee breaks I'll have no place to stay
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
Lord mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
It's got what it takes to make a poor woman leave her home
Oh well, oh well
Don't it make you feel bad
When you're tryin' to find your way home
You don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down South
They got no work to do
If you don't know about Chicago
Cryin' won't help you prayin' won't do you no good
Now cryin' won't help you prayin' 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
Thinkin' 'bout me baby and my happy home
Going to Chicago
Going down, going down now, going down
Going down now, going down
Going down, going down, going down

You can read my letter now, you sure don't know my mind
You can read my letter now, you sure don't know my mind
When you think I'm lovin' ya I'm leavin' all the time
I ain't got nobody now, I'm all here by myself
I ain't got nobody, I'm all here by myself
I ain't got nobody, I'm all here by myself
Let me be your sometime now, 'til your always come
Let me be your sometime now, 'til your always come
And I do more for you now, your always ever done
I don't want no hog head, don't eat no chittlin's, don't want no spare ribs, don't eat no backbone
Mam', I got a hambone, I wonder can I get it boiled?
'Cause these Chicago women 'bout to let my hambone spoil
Church, the bell's a-ringin', the preacher's preachin', secretary's a-writin', the members shoutin'
The dirty deacon has taken my gal and gone.
And all little children now, papa, tryin' to sing my song
Let me be your rocker now, 'til your straight chair come
Let me be your rocker now, 'til your straight chair come
And I'll rock you easier than the straight chair ever done
