There is a stray dog lapping at the kerb-side pool
\n Hear the tap, tap, tapping from a tap-dance school
\n The teacher keeps the beat
\n To the old sheet music
\n They keep in the piano stool And in Donovan’s doorway
\n There’s a man with a night stick
\n To keep us from playing the fool
\n And in Donovan’s doorway
\n There’s a man with a night stick
\n And he’s just applying the rules<\/p>\n
There’s fine rain falling past a tall flood-light
\n For some fine foot-balling on a week-day night
\n The players all drive up
\n In limousines
\n To pull on the red and the white<\/p>\n
And in Donovan’s doorway
\n There’s a man with a night-stick
\n He’s watching from his left to his right
\n And in Donovan’s doorway
\n There’s a man with a night-stick
\n He’s keeping us well in his sights<\/p>\n
And he could walk this road all night
\n And we could talk it out till the very first light
\n And we could start from the slightest suggestion
\n But the odds are against us
\n Making much progress
\n Because it’s not just the night that’s in question\u2026<\/p>\n
There’s a church converted to a hard-ware store
\n There’s no-one on this street who don’t know the score
\n Two hearts entwined
\n ‚Mick‘ and ‚Caroline‘
\n On a poster that says, ‚Help the Poor‘<\/p>\n
And in Donovan’s doorway
\n There’s a man with a night-stick
\n He asks me what I’m looking for<\/p>\n
And in Donovan’s doorway
\n There’s a man with a night-stick
\n He asks me what I’m looking for<\/p>\n
And in Donovan’s doorway
\n There’s a man with a night-stick
\n And he’s just upholding the law<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":978,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_swt_meta_header_display":false,"_swt_meta_footer_display":false,"_swt_meta_site_title_display":false,"_swt_meta_sticky_header":false,"_swt_meta_transparent_header":false},"class_list":["post-1265","song","type-song","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latinquartermusic.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/song\/1265","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latinquartermusic.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/song"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latinquartermusic.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/song"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.latinquartermusic.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.latinquartermusic.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/978"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.latinquartermusic.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1265"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
