Down In The Flood
Crash on the levee, mama
Water's gonna overflow
Swamps gonna rise
And no boats gonna row
You can train on down
To Williams Point
You can bust your feet
You can rock this joint
But oh mama, you gonna miss your best friend now?
You're gonna have to find yourself another best friend, somehow
Now, don't you try and move me
Mama you're just gonna lose
There's been a crash on the levee
And mama, you've been refused
Well, it's king for king
Queen for queen
It's gonna be the meanest flood
That anybody's ever seen
Oh mama, you gonna miss your best friend now?
You're gonna have to find yourself another best friend, somehow
Well, that high tides risin'
Mama, don't you let me down
Pack up your suitcase
Mama, don't you make a sound
Well, it's sugar for sugar
And it's salt for salt
If you go down in the flood
It's gonna be your own fault
Oh mama, ain't you gonna miss your best friend now?
You're gonna have to find yourself another best friend, somehow
