Down In The Flood Lyrics

Crash on the levee, mama
Water's gonna overflow
Swamps gonna rise
And no boats gonna row
Now you can train on down
To William's Point
You can bust your feet
You can rock this joint
But mama, ain't you gonna
Miss your best friend now?
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
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?
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
And queen for queen
Gonna be the meanest flood
That anybody's ever seen
Oh mama, ain't you gonna
Miss your best friend now?
You're just gonna have to find yourself
Another best friend, somehow
