Lyrics Nighthawkin' (Remastered) - Tim Buckley
I
was
a
nighthawkin'
in
my
taxi
On
a
cruise
below
the
deadline
My
fare
was
a
shaky
ol'
lush
So
I
kicked
it
over
and
took
off
Then
he
whipped
out
this
switch
blade
Straight
outta
nowhere
level
to
my
throat
He
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
steel
He
said
"Take
me
down
to
Fourth
and
Main"
Ah
that
paratroop
bluff
always
cools
oh
the
red
eyed
geezers
down
Man
that
last
block
that
cat
was
singing
Man
he
was
sittin'
in
the
backseat
singing
to
me
this
song
I
got
my
VAR
boy
I
got
my
M1
on
my
hip
right
You
better
listen
mr
president
Oh
boy
don't
you
mess
up
with
my
war,
boy
I
wanna
do
I
wanna
do
Lord
I
wanna
do
the
Blood
Boogaloo
I'm
just
a
Redneck
son
of
a
gun
I
wanna
kill
me
a
gook
before
dawn
Ah,
night
hawkin'
for
my
change
