Tom Petty

Nightwatchman

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 can be just what you need
You got to think about the pros and cons
You could be right could be wrong

I'm the nightwatchman
I am security
I'm the nightwatchman
How safe do you wa nt to be?

I sit around at night, listen to the radio
If I get bored I may have a little smoke
Yeah I got a permit to wear this .38
But listen, my life's worth more than the minimum wage
