Give Me a Buh!

At almost 43 feet, the Mississippi River is high enough to show only the tops of the letters on the levee. Can you guess what the entire message is? This shot and the next twelve "spell" it out. My post of 4/21 gives a clue, as does the last shot in this set.

This one and the next are both parts of the fifth letter.

My colleague was going to run the levee steps until he saw this scene.

The answer? Or at least part of it

Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move.

moonofthewild Hmm, I wonder if it says Baton Rouge? Also, I'm wondering, in a nice way, if you are psycho. What a funny thing to post! :) I guess I'm inpatient with puzzles that I don't get immediately.Thanks for the game.

moonofthewild Oh yeah, how often does the river run this high?
