Lyrics Paul Kelly – Night Watchman
Text:
Night watchman walking the yard
Night watchman all on his own
Night watchman under the stars
Night watchman guarding the zone
Night watchman swinging his torch
As he watches over his brood
Night watchman checking the corners
Humming a tune
Everyone’s sleeping
As he goes creeping
Everyone’s sleeping but him
Night watchman far from his pillow
Night watchman dreaming of meadows
And beaches drowning in sunlight
Everyone’s sleeping
As he goes creeping
Everyone’s sleeping but him
Night watchman, night watchman
King of the night time
King of the night time
