Hawks Can Go Lyrics

Sittin' at the gas station with a pocket full of change
With a pocket full of dirt and cryin'
With my feelings hurt
Well, I could use some company
Spendin' my last twenty-five pennies
And I could probably use a drink
Even though I don't drink
Well, it's time: Maybe a drink

Sittin' on the corner whistling a little thing
While I'm fishing
Now, a piece
From my life back to the teeth
Talking to you well I'm talking to you and

I been walkin' way too long
Tryin' to see what's going on
I don't think I know what's happening
I guess I should just move along
And find some company
Sit on a bench in the city
Somebody offered me a drink
Even though I can't think

Well, it's two and it's sunny, it's me and it's money
'Cause just pass me by and I'm serious
All we gotta do is find a way, goddamn

If we can go
We can come back again
If hawks can go
Then they can come back again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Straight from the booklet:

Sitting at the gas station with pocket full of change. With a pocket full of dirt and crying with my feelings hurt. Well I could use some company spending my last twenty-five pennies. And I could probably use a drink, even though I don't drink. Well it's time, maybe to drink. Sitting on the corner whistling a little thing while I'm fishing out the keys from my life packed to the 't'. And when I find them I'll be on the phone talking to you. Well I'm talking to you and. I've been walking way too long. Trying to see what's going on. I don't think I know what's happening. I guess I should just move along and find some company. Sit on a bench in the city. Somebody offer me a drink. Even though, I can't think. Well, it's two and it's sunny. It's me and it's funny. Cars just pass me by and I'm serious. All I've got to do is find a way god damn. If we can go, we can come back again. If hawks can go, they can come back again.
