Lyrics

You get home You hear the siren wail Can't drown out the night breeze They're taking somebody to jail On the midnight prowl It happens every day On the midnight prowl People peeping in windows Knocking down doors You make a real good target in the moonlight Lot of people hurting, a lot of people sore On the midnight prowl Oh, it's shaky out there On the midnight prowl Now the blues in your eyes Are just as deep as the sky And the hollow in your heart Is beginning to show Oh, You get by... But it ain't much fun You need a lot more money to spend You know it's easily done On the midnight prowl ...Ah, you can do it On the midnight prowl Sometimes you want to cry out loud And say, "Oh, it's just a weeping world."
