Down in the Flood

Down in the Flood - Blood, Sweet & Tears

Crash on the levee,

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

Oh mama,

You gonna miss your

Best friend now?

You're gonna have to

Find yourself another best friend,

Somehow

Now, 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 to 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, baby that high tides risin'

Mama, don't you let me down

Pack up your suitcase

Mama, don't you make a sound baby

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
