Song title: Gordon Lightfoot - The Watchman's Gone

Edit By: 216.73.217.31

Just like birds of a feather
We too have followed the golden sun
It feels so good,
Knowin the watchmans gone
If I give you a rose, buddy
Would you please bury it in the fields?
I seen a rose
Watchin it all fold out

Theres a train down at the station
Its come to carry my bones away
Two engines on
Twenty-one coaches long
End to end
Twenty-one coaches bend
The watchmans out
Kickin the bums about

If I wait for the right moment
You can bet Ill climb aboard unseen
Ive done it before
I know I can do it in my sleep

The watchmans out
Kickinthe bums about
The watchmans out
Kickin your dreams about

As I leave you in the sunset
Got one more nothin Id like to say
You dont know me
A son of the sea am i
As I say to you, my brother
If you live to follow the golden sun
You better beware
Knowin the watchmans always there

If you find me feedin daisies
Please turn my face up to the sky
And leave me be
Watchin the moon roll by
Whatever I was
You know it was all because
Ive been on the town
Washin the bullshit down

The watchmans out
Kickin your dreams about
It feels so good
Knowin the watchmans gone
Its like a song
Knowin the watchmans gone
