Chorus

I'm the nightwatchman

I make the rounds

I'm the nightwatchman

I gotta keep my nose to the ground



Honey this ain't no job for a man like me

I got potential, I could be just what you need

You got to think about the pros and cons

You could be right, you could be wrong



Chorus

I'm the nightwatchman

I am security

I'm the nightwatchman

How safe do you wanna be?



I sit around at night and listen to the radio

If I get real bored I might have a little smoke

Yeah I got a permit to wear this .38

But listen my life's worth more than the minimum wage



Repeat choruses
