Verse 1:
       E7
I been balling a shiny black steel jack-hammer,
     A7
Been chippin' up rocks for the great highway,

E7   A7

     E7
I'll live five years if I take my time,
A7
Ballin' that jack and a drinkin' my wine.

E7    A7

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.

Verse 2:
A7                          E7
Easy wind cross the Bayou today
               A7
Cause there's a whole lotta women, mama,
                            E7
Out in red on the streets today.
        B
And the river keeps a talkin',
        A     C                E
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.

(Chorus)
