It's the Hawk

Leavin' Louisiana on a Greyhound bus

Come to Chicago to cause a fuss

My way around I did not know

But you learn fast when the cold wind blows

It's the Hawk blowin' strong

When the Hawk wind comes

You wish you had long drawers on

Old Mister Hawkins ain't nobody's friend

Jack Frost ain't got nothin' on him

Shiver and shake just like a leaf

When he rolls down Maxwell Street

It's the Hawk blowin' strong

When the Hawk wind comes

You wish you had long drawers on

Buddy Guy's Legends on South Wabash

I dropped by to spend a little cash

I heard the blues I dug the show

But who was waitin' outside the door

 The Hawk... blowin' strong

When the Hawk wind comes

You wish you had long drawers on

It's the Hawk blowin' strong

When the Hawk wind comes

You wish you had long drawers on
