Nightwatchman — Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers

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

I'm the nightwatchman I am security I'm the nightwatchman How safe do you wanna be?

I sit around at night and listen to the radio If I 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
