The Walkabouts - The Night Watch lyrics

I'm the nightwatchman and nothing gets behind my back Work out at the goldmine in a tin can shack Don't come up behind cause i won't be mincing my words Don't play twenty questions with all of the scavenger birds I'm the nightwatchman It's up to me and the devil to do all the dirty work Got a thousand dirty secrets rolled up in the sleeve of my shirt Don't come up behind me, i will be playing for keeps Don't do this for good looks, i'll do this so someday i'll sleep I'm the nightwatchman I know about secrets, i know what secrets are worth Gold is a secret, they're draggin it out of the dirt Yes, i'm the nightwatchman
