Songs Title：build a levee[00:00:08]

When I was just a little girl my mamma said to me [00:00:21]

＂beware of the devil my child[00:00:30]

In the dark rocky places he'll keep[00:00:33]

Beware of the devil my child[00:00:39]

Beware of his charming ways[00:00:42]

You'll fall under an evil spell[00:00:48]

Just looking at his beautiful face[00:00:51]

You gotta build yourself a levee deep inside[00:00:57]

You gotta build yourself a levee deep inside[00:01:06]

＂don't go walking by the riverside[00:01:11]

Alone in the pale moonlight[00:01:19]

He'll come up upon you girl[00:01:25]

With no earthy body in sight[00:01:28]

Come up upon you girl[00:01:34]

And he'll whisper something sweet[00:01:37]

Then take you where the waters rise[00:01:43]

So high and run so deep ＂[00:01:46]

＂you gotta build yourself a levee deep inside[00:01:51]

Gotta build yourself a levee deep inside[00:02:02]

Build yourself a levee girl when the waters run high＂[00:02:12]

Now when I was just a little girl my mamma said to me [00:02:30]

＂beware of the devil my child[00:02:40]

But if by chance you should meet[00:02:42]

Beware of his cold dark eyes full of bold and unholy deceit[00:02:49]

He'll tempt you with a whirling pool of lies and promises[00:02:58]

He'll deny or that he will never keep＂[00:03:04]

＂you gotta build yourself a levee deep inside[00:03:09]

Gotta build yourself a levee deep inside[00:03:23]

You gotta build yourself a levee deep inside[00:03:32]

Build yourself a levee girl when the waters run high＂[00:03:42]
