Tim Buckley - Nighthawkin' Lyrics
I was a nighthawkin' in my taxiOn a cruise below the deadlineMy fare was a shaky ol' lushSo I kicked it over and took offThen he whipped out this switch bladeStraight outta nowhere level to my throatHe said "You ever been over to the war boy"I said "Man I was a combat paratrooper daddy"Well then he slump back cool and he pocket that steelHe said "Take me down to Fourth and Main"Ah that paratroop bluff always cools oh the red eyed geezers downMan that last block that cat was singingMan he was sittin' in the backseat singing to me this songI got my bar boyI got my M1 on my hip rightYou better listen mr presidentOh boy don't you mess up with my war, boyI wanna do I wanna doLord I wanna do the Blood BoogalooI'm just a Redneck son of a gunI wanna kill me a gook before dawnAh, night hawkin' for my change
