Easy Wind (Part 1) Songtext
von Grateful Dead

I been ballin′ a shiny black steel jack-hammer
Been chippin' up rocks for the great highway
I live five years if I take my time
Ballin′ that jack and 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
