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 river keeps 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 on the streets in a red today. |
|
And the river keep a talkin', |
|
but you never heard a word it said. |
