Crash on the levee, mama, water's gonna overflow

F                                                                                              C

Swamp's gonna rise, and no boat's gonna row

You can train on down, To Williams Point, You can bust your feet, You can rock this joint

You're gonna have to find yourself, Another best friend, somehow

Now, don't you try an' move me, Mama you're just gonna lose

There's a crash on the levee, And, mama, you've been refused

Well, it's king for king, And it's 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

You're gonna have to find yourself, Another best friend, somehow

Jam (over F)  |: C   Bb       A   Ab :| then F  C then ->

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, 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
