Down in the Flood is a song by Bob Dylan, originally recorded by Dylan in 1967 with the Band, and copyrighted that autumn. One of the 1967 recordings was released on the 1975 album The Basement Tapes and re-released in 2014 on The Bootleg Series Vol. 11: The Basement Tapes Complete, along with a preceding take.

A live version performed with the Band in the early hours of January 1, 1972 was released on the 2001 reissue of the Band's Rock Of Ages.
