| Posted By: Rush Limclod Posted On: Sep 7, 2005 Views: 678 | The Truth About the Levees George W. Bush caused the levee breach becuase he wanted the flood to happen. There was explosions reported before the levees broke open. One barge loaded with explosives went first! |

| Posted By: GirlUWant Posted On: Sep 8, 2005 Views: 635 | RE: The Truth About the Levees Someone tried to tell me that Led Zeppelin's song When the Levee Breaks is about New Orleans, written thirty plus years ago, but I read the lyrics and I don't see it. Has anyone else heard that? The song does mention going to Chicago, and it mentions mountains. He explained to me that New Orleans was Zeppelin's favorite US city...I can't see that either... |
| Posted By: Led Zeppelin Posted On: Sep 9, 2005 Views: 610 | RE: The Truth About the Levees The truth about our song is that everytime we went to New Orleans, we took a shit right in the street. I think thats it. |

| Posted By: grumby Posted On: Sep 12, 2005 Views: 600 | RE: The Truth About the Levees And I'll this time I've been feelin' like a schmuck for having "When The Levee Breaks" going through my head... If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break, If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break, When the levee breaks Ill have no place to stay. Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan, Lord, mean old levee taught me to weep and moan, Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home, Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well. Dont it make you feel bad When youre tryin to find your way home, You dont know which way to go? If youre goin down south They go no work to do, If you dont know about chicago. Cryin wont help you, prayin wont do you no good, Now, cryin wont help you, prayin wont 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 bout me baby and my happy home. Going, gon to chicago, Gon to chicago, Sorry but I cant take you. Going down, going down now, going down. Evidentally, we're not the only ones wondering... http://www.pro-networks.org/forum/post-516986.html&sid=cd962d27ee784a68d 8139a5822fae5f1 My guess, it's probably a song with a dual meaning... The thought of the levee breaking is not knew, especially since "It's based on a 1929 recording of the same name by Blues artist Memphis Minnie McCoy (born Lizzie Douglas). Robert Plant had the record in his collection." |
