[Chorus 1]
I'm the nightwatchman
I make the rounds
I'm the nightwatchman
I gotta keep my nose to the ground

[Verse 1]
Oh, this ain't no job for a man like me
Yeah, I got potential, I could be just what you need
Yeah, you got to think about the pros and cons
Listen here, could be right and you could be wrong

[Chorus 2]
I'm the nightwatchman
I am security
I'm the nightwatchman
How safe do you wanna be?

[Verse 2]
I'll just sit around at night and listen to the radio
Yeah, when we 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

[Chorus 1]
I'm the nightwatchman
I make the rounds
I'm the nightwatchman
I gotta keep my nose to the ground
[Chorus 2]
I'm the nightwatchman
I am security
I'm the nightwatchman
How safe do you wanna be?

[Outro]
I'm the nightwatchman
I'm the nightwatchman
I'm the nightwatchman
How safe do you wanna be?
