BOB DYLAN lyrics : "Crash On The Levee (Down In The Flood)"


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