Down In the Flood

Crash on the levee, mama, water's gonna overflow
 Swamp's gonna rise, no boat's gonna row
 Now you can train on down to Williams Point
 You can bust your feet, you can rock this joint
 But, oh mama, ain't 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, you're just gonna lose
 There's a crash on the levee and, mama, you've been refused
 Well, it's sugar for sugar and 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?
 Yes, you're gonna have to find yourself another best friend, somehow.
 Well, that high tide's risin', mama, don't you let me down
 Pack up your suitcase, mama, don't you make a sound
 Now it's king for king, queen for queen
 It's gonna be the meanest flood that anybody's seen
 Oh mama, ain't you gonna miss your best friend now?
 Yes, you're gonna have to find yourself another best friend, somehow.
