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 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 own fault |
|
Oh mama, ain't you gonna miss your best friend now? |
|
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 |
