Gordon Lightfoot - The Watchman's Gone Lyrics
Just like birds of a featherWe too have followed the golden sunIt feels so good,Knowin the watchmans goneIf I give you a rose, buddyWould you please bury it in the fields?I seen a roseWatchin it all fold outTheres a train down at the stationIts come to carry my bones awayTwo engines onTwenty-one coaches longEnd to endTwenty-one coaches bendThe watchmans outKickin the bums aboutIf I wait for the right momentYou can bet Ill climb aboard unseenIve done it beforeI know I can do it in my sleepThe watchmans outKickinthe bums aboutThe watchmans outKickin your dreams aboutAs I leave you in the sunsetGot one more nothin Id like to sayYou dont know meA son of the sea am iAs I say to you, my brotherIf you live to follow the golden sunYou better bewareKnowin the watchmans always thereIf you find me feedin daisiesPlease turn my face up to the skyAnd leave me beWatchin the moon roll byWhatever I wasYou know it was all becauseIve been on the townWashin the bullshit downThe watchmans outKickin your dreams aboutIt feels so goodKnowin the watchmans goneIts like a songKnowin the watchmans gone
