Sandy Denny - Down in The Flood lyrics
rate me
Crash on the leveemama
Water's gonna overflow
Swamp's gonna rise
No boat's gonna row.
Nowyou can train on down
To williams point
You can bust your feet
You can rock this joint.
But oh mamaain't you gonna miss your best friend now?
You're gonna have to find yourself
Another best friendsomehow.
Nowdon't you try an' move me
You're just gonna lose.
There's a crash on the levee
Andmamayou've been refused.
Wellit's sugar for sugar
And salt for salt
If you go down in the flood
It's gonna be your own fault.
Oh mamaain't you gonna miss your best friend now?
You're gonna have to find yourself
Another best friendsomehow.
Wellthat high tide's risin'
Mamadon't you let me down.
Pack up your suitcase
Mamadon't you make a sound.
Nowit's king for king
Queen for queen
It's gonna be the meanest flood
That anybody's seen.
Oh mamaain't you gonna miss your best friend now?
Yesyou're gonna have to find yourself
Another best friendsomehow.
