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
