Levee Lyrics by The Riverside (Folk)

Mythos and Petra

2022

[Verse]
Well, I'm the one who's always built it up
With logs and wooden jams
Heavy branches to hold your waters back
In barricaded strands
[Chorus]
But I am like a floodplain
That meanders across your land
Well, I ain't no levee, and I ain't no dam
And I can't hold your waters back
[Verse]
Man, I'm tired of this same old heart
Rocky dirt 'n' stone
And heavy boulders laying on my mind
And I feel them where I go
[Chorus]
Because I am made of soil
Made of clay, and silt, and sand
Well, I ain't no levee, and I ain't no dam
And I can't hold your waters back
[Chorus]
Because I am made of soil
Made of clay, and silt, and sand
Well, I ain't no levee, and I ain't no dam
And I can't hold your waters back
[Chorus]
Because I am like a floodplain
That meanders across your land
Wеll, I ain't no levee, and I ain't no dam
And I can't hold your waters back
