Crash on the levee, mama,
Water's gonna overflow,
C7
Swamp's gonna rise,
G
And 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, you gonna miss your best friend now?

You're gonna have to find yourself a

Another best friend, somehow.
Now, don't you try an' 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
And Queen for Queen,
It's gonna be the biggest flood,
That anyone has ever seen.
Oh mama, you gonna miss your best friend now.
You're gonna have to find yourself a
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.
Well, it's sugar for sugar,
An' it's 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?
You gonna have to find yourself a
Another best friend, somehow.
