Night Patrol |
See him cuddled in the shadows |
Sleepin' on his cardboard bed |
Using rags for a pillow |
Where he lays his unwashed head |
His blanket’s old newspaper |
Not much good against the snow |
See so many like him out there |
When you walk the night patrol |
When you walk the night patrol |
Oh, you wonder where he came from |
Where he’s gonna go Was it a woman or a bottle? |
That’s brought him down so low |
What’s happened to his family? |
Do they know he’s out here in the cold? |
He’s just a nameless soldier |
Marching on the night patrol |
Marching on the night patrol |
Like that girl on the corner |
She can’t be more than seventeen |
She’s run away from somewhere |
Taking nothing but her dreams |
Now those dreams are lying shattered |
As the street exacts its toll |
And she’s just another victim |
Lost out on the night patrol |
Oh, you could ask me why I’m out here |
Where do I fit into the scene? |
Now I’m drawing unemployment |
Got replaced by a machine |
And I’m tortured by my bad habits |
Sometimes, I lose this struggle to control |
And the street has its attractions |
When you walk the night patrol |
When you walk the night patrol |
