[Verse 1]
There's been a [G]crash on the living,
mama, water's gonna overflow
[C]Swamp's gonna rise and no

You can train on down [C]to [G]Wilms Point
[C]You can [G]bust your feet,
[C]you can rock this joint
But oh, mama
You're gonna miss your
best friend [G]now
[C]You're [D]gonna have to find yourself
another [C]best friend some[G]how[D]
[G]Don't you try and move me,
mama, you're gonna lose
You're [C]gonna crash on the living,
mama, you've been [G]refused
Well it's king to king, [C]queen [G]to queen
It's [C]gonna [G]be the meanest flood
that [C]any[G]body's [C]ever see[Bb]n
