What song is it that has the lyric:
Goin, I'm goin to Chicago...

Also on what album did it appear.

I believe that Led Zeppelin had two fantastic songs that appeared on
no album. Perhaps this is one.

Much Thanks,
Patrice

"When the Levee Breaks" is a blues song written and first recorded by
husband and wife Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929. The song
is based on the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927.

It was famously re-worked by Led Zeppelin as the last song on their
fourth album. The lyrics in Led Zeppelin's song were based on the
original recording by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie, which
Robert Plant had in his personal collection.?
