Easy Wind — Grateful Dead

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.
