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 |
|
And don't you try an' 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 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 |
