You don't say what version of GIMP you are using, but the bar, "[Create] 
path from Text" is in the text toolbox, not the layers window. Note that 
in GIMP 2.6, the wording on the bar omits the word "Create".

When you click on the Text tool, the associated text tool box has a
"Text along Path" button

So make your path, write your text, and press the button
