The Levee

(kevin bowe)

I have been to memphis but I couldnt find no peace
My soul is feeling restless and I need some relief
Im heading for the delta, see what I can find
I know the river holds the answers thatll ease my worried mind

Take me down to the levee where the women sing
Lay me down like an angel with a broken wing
Take me down to the levee where the river flows
Gon throw my blues off the levee and let them go

Well, I have been to natchez, been down to baton rouge
But the delta keeps on callin me no matter what I do

Chorus

Solo

Im drivin through the darkness, down highway 61
Heading for the crossroads like the ones before me done
