The Poor Old Night Watchman – (Dinki Di)
It was down in old Sydney, where the bullshit lies thick
I was walking along with my hand on my prick
Twas there that I met her the girl I adore
Sweet Charlotte the harlot, the cowpuncher's whore
Oh Charlotte got up in the mid of the night
Saying, Oh my God, I must have a shite
It's up with the window and out with her arse
God help any body who happens to pass.
The poor old night watchman was just passing by
And in his hand he held a hot pie
He was walking along with his head in the sky
When a lump of hot shit hit him fair in the eye
Then the poor old night watchman was blinded for life
With ten thousand kids and a broken down wife
He begs on the corner of Market and Pitt
With a sign round his neck saying blinded by shit
