words and music, Jack Smith

lyrics

I see the dragonfly shadow in the dark of the night
The will-o’-the-wisp in the broad daylight
I see the opalescent shimmer on the wing of the bee
The barracuda smilin’ in the cold blue sea
Don’t try to get away
The Hawk’ll be a-watchin ya

I see the snake-scale pattern in the burnin’ sand
The wet fear shine on the assassin’s hand
I see the hesitation flicker in the eye of the liar
The all-consuming pleasure of the moth in the fire
Don’t try to get away
The Hawk’ll be a-watchin ya

Watchin’
The Hawk’ll be a-watchin ya
Watchin’
The Hawk’ll be a-watchin ya
In the cool of the day, in the heat of the night
Believe me when I say
That you’re always in sight
Don’t try to get away
The Hawk’ll be a-watchin ya
