Bill Callahan - Easy Wind lyrics

I been balling a shiny
Black steel jack hammer
Been chipping up rocks for the great highway
I'll live five years if I take my time
Balling 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 better stop balling 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 lot of women, mama
Out in red on the streets today
And the river keeps a talking
But, you never hear a word it says

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 lot of women, mama
Out in red on the street today
And the river keeps a talking
But, you never hear a word it says
