Theres.........a....lady....who......knows......all.....that.....gliters.......is.......GOLD!.....(she...said) Close the door, put out the light. You know they won't be home...... tonight. The snow falls hard and don't you know? The winds of Thor are blowing cold. They're wearing steel that's bright and true. They carry news that must get through. They choose the path where no one goes. They hold no quarter. Walking side by side with death. The devil......mocks their every step. The snow drives back....... the foot that's slow. The dogs of doom........ are howling more....(awoooo) They carry news.......... that must get through. To build a dream for me and you. They choose the path where no one goes. They hold no quarter. The pain, the pain without quarter. They ask no quarter. The dogs of doom are howlinmore! 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. Mean old levee......... taught me........ to weep and moan. It's got what it takes..............to make a mountain man........... leave his home. Oh, well, 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? Cryin' won't help you............, prayin' won't do you no good. No, 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' about my baby.....and my happy home. Going to Chicago... Going to Chicago... Sorry but I can't take you... Going down... going down now... Going down... going down...awwwand she's buyithe stairway.....the ......stairway to................heaven!!!
