I been balling a shiny black steel jack-hammer,
been chippin` up rocks for the great highway,
live five years if I take my time,
ballin` that jack and a drinkin` my wine.
I been chippin` them rocks from dawn till doom,
while my rider hide my bottle in the other room.
Doctor say better stop ballin` that jack,
if I live five years I gonna bust my back, yes I will.
Easy wind cross the Bayou today
cause there`s a whole lotta women, mama,
out in red on the streets today.
And the rivers keep a talkin`,
but you never heard a word it said.
Gotta find a woman be good to me,
won`t hide my liquor try to serve me tea,
cause I`m a stone jack baller and my heart is true
and I`ll give everything that I got to you, yes I will.
Easy wind going cross the Bayou today
there`s a whole lotta women
out in red on the streets today.
And the rivers keep a talkin`,
but you never heard a word it said.
