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 William's point
You can bust your feet
You can rock this joint
But oh mama, ain't you gonna
Miss your best friend now
You gonna have to find yourself
Another best friend somehow

Now don't you try and move me
You're just gonna lose
There's a crash on the levee
And mama you been refused
Well it's sugar for sugar
And 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
Yes you gonna have to find yourself
Another best friend somehow

Well that high tide's rising
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 gonna have to find yourself
Another best friend somehow
