When The Levee Breaks

thetworegs

No it’s not the Zep track….it’s a bit of blues Reg style thinking of those poor folk who survived the levee breaking in New Orleans but had nothing and had lost loved ones…….
When the Levee Breaks (Lyrics)
oh She is beautiful even dressed in rags
she got a dream oh that lady she got a dream

Her mother lost her son when the water come
she got nothing left but she can still dream

Her Daddy works hard
although he hasn’t a dime
He weeps but his still got his dream

they have nothing but the cloths they stand in
Since the water and washed away everything, everything but their dream

They live, in New Orleans right by the delta ,where the levee broke , washing away everything, everything, everything gone
but it couldn’t wash away their dreams
they held on
On to their dreams, on to their dreams, on to their dreams, on to their dreams, on to their dreams, they held on, on to their dreams, their still got their dream

Their still there, they got belief, belief, in a dream
their dream, their dream,
they got belief, they got belief, they got belief in their dreams
