Night Patrol - Robert Cray.lrc

LRC Lyrics download
[00:15.69]See him cuddled in the shadows
[00:18.03]Sleepin' on his cardboard bed
[00:24.45]Using rags for a pillow
[00:28.35]Where he lays his unwashed head
[00:33.03]His blanket's old newspaper
[00:37.02]Not much good against the snow
[00:40.86]See so many like him out there
[00:45.39]When you walk the night patrol
[00:49.56]When you walk the night patrol
[00:53.67]Oh, you wonder where he came from
[00:58.56]Where he's gonna go
[01:00.03]Was it a woman or a bottle?
[01:06.57]That's brought him down so low
[01:10.74]What's happened to his family?
[01:14.40]Do they know he's out here in the cold?
[01:20.19]He's just a nameless soldier
[01:23.01]Marching on the night patrol
[01:27.24]Marching on the night patrol
[01:31.23]Like that girl on the corner
[01:35.16]She can't be more than seventeen
[01:39.90]She's run away from somewhere
[01:43.92]Taking nothing but her dreams
[01:47.82]Now those dreams are lying shattered
[01:52.38]As the street exacts its toll
[01:56.64]And she's just another victim
[02:00.66]Lost out on the night patrol
[02:41.97]Oh, you could ask me why I'm out here
[02:46.53]Where do I fit into the scene?
[02:50.64]Now I'm drawing unemployment
[02:55.14]Got replaced by a machine
[02:59.34]And I'm tortured by my bad habits
[03:02.10]Sometimes, I lose this struggle to control
[03:07.50]And the street has its attractions
[03:11.88]When you walk the night patrol
[03:16.02]When you walk the 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
