I been balling that shiny black steel jack hammer
Been chipping them rocks for the great highway
I'll live five years if I take my time
Ballin' that jack and drinking my wine
I been chipping them rocks from dawn till doom
While my rider hide my bottle in the other room
Doctor say, "You better stop balling that jack
If I live five years I'm gonna break my back, a-yes I will"
Easy wind, blowing cross the bayou today
There's a whole lot of women, out on the streets in red today
And the river keep a-talking, but you never hear a word it say
Go on, now!
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, a-yes I will
Easy wind, blowing cross the bayou today
There's a whole lot of women, out on
The streets dressed in red that way
And the river keep a-talking, mama, but you never heard a word it say
