Paul Kelly - Night Watchman Lyrics
Night watchman walking the yard
Night watchman all on his own
Night watchman under the stars
Night watchman guarding the zone
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

Great words, ZombeeChimp! You called up the sort of sharply-defined memories that great songs create for us - and which then last forever. I clearly remember being knocked over when I first heard his classic, "To Her Door".
I agree!!!

Absolutely loved this album. Cassette tape cranked on the boom box painting shutters in the garage while it poured outside. Best $5/hr I ever made.
Geez this man is a legend. Words fail me when I hear some of these songs... just incredible.
This song and Lee Kernaghan's Boys From the Bush evoke more images of traditional Australian rural life than any amount of tourism ads and visits from Oprah Winfrey. You are almost riding in the ute on the way to the B&S ball as the lyrics unfold and the endless plains roll into the distance. A great evocative slice of an Australia still enjoying the afterglow of Crocodile Dundee and the Oz music boom. A true classic in all respects.
Thanks for posting this song... love it.
Love this song!! Been waiting for it and can't stop listening to it! Another great song from legendary singer/songwriter Paul Kelly
