Out on the street tonight
All the children are sleeping
I hope they all sleep tight
'Cause I'm ready for creepin'
Back in the alley that I call home
We don't wake up till the wild dogs roam
(Ooh oh ooh) Can't you see
(Hey yeah-a-h) They never will get me
(Ooh oh ooh) I'm on the prowl about
I'm the night crawler
I don't know what you bought
I leave it for the common thieves
I like to sweat when I'm almost caught
And the ecstasy when I'm not released
That's why I search for it all night long
You can only have it once and it's always gone
(Ooh oh ooh) Can't you see
(Hey yeah-a-h) They never will get me
(Ooh oh ooh) I'm on the prowl about
I'm the night crawler
If you didn't lock the door
And now your the dream I'm holding
This is what I live for
To watch the young girls cross the border
It's almost dawn and my eyes are red
So are the sheets that are on your bed
Can't you see
They never will catch me
(Ooh oh ooh) I'm on the prowl about
(Hey yeah-a-h) I'm gonna knock you out
(Night crawler) Can't you see
(Night crawler) They never will get me
(Night crawler) I'm gonna prowl about
(Night crawler) Until I knock you out
'Cause I'm a...
'Cause I'm a...
'Cause I'm a...
Night crawler
