I been balling a shiny black steel jack-hammer, Been chippin' up rocks for the great highway, I'll 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. Chorus Intro Easy wind cross the Bayou today Cause there's a whole lotta women, mama, Out in red on the streets today. And the river keeps a talkin', But you never heard a word it said. Chorus Outro 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.
