Broken Levee Blues - Lonnie Johnson/Willie Johnson[00:00:00]

I wants to go back to Helena[00:00:12]

The high waters got me bogged[00:00:16]

I wants to go back to Helena[00:00:24]

The high waters got me bogged[00:00:28]

I woke up early this mornin'[00:00:36]

A water hole in my back yard[00:00:40]

They want me to work on the levee[00:00:49]

I have to leave my home[00:00:54]

They want to work on the levee[00:01:02]

That I have to leave my home[00:01:06]

I was so scared the levee might break out[00:01:14]

And I may drown[00:01:21]

The water was round my windows[00:01:27]

And backin' all up in my door[00:01:32]

The water was all up round my windows[00:01:40]

And backin' all up in my door[00:01:44]

I'd rather to leave my home 'cause[00:01:53]

I can't live there no more[00:01:58]

The police run me all from Cairo[00:02:06]

All through Arkansas[00:02:10]

The police run me all from Cairo all through Arkansas[00:02:19]

And put me in jail behind those cold iron bars[00:02:32]

The police say work fight[00:02:45]

Or go to jail[00:02:47]

I say I ain't totin' no sack[00:02:49]

Police say work fight or go to jail[00:02:58]

I say I ain't totin' no sack[00:03:02]

And I ain't buildin' no levee[00:03:11]

The planks is on the ground[00:03:14]

And I ain't drivin' no nails[00:03:16]
