I been ballin' a shiny black steel jackhammer
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 I better stop ballin' that jack
If I live five years gonna bust my back, yes I will
Easy wind cross the bayou today
There's a whole lotta women, mama
Out in red on the streets today
And the river keep a talkin'
But you never hear a word it say
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 cross the bayou today
There's a whole lotta women, mama
Out in red on the streets today
And the river keep a talkin'
But you never hear a word it say
