Grateful Dead - Easy Wind [1970]



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

Actually

"California
A prophet on the burning shore
California
I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel
Standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise
I know I'm going to shine"

Parodying guru types in "Estimated Prophet"

Idk. Maybe The Gorillaz Said It? I Couldn’t Find It Just Now In My Music Collection.
