Default Re: Who is The Watchman?

"The watchman's out
Kickin'the bums about
The watchman's out
Kickin' your dreams about"

About a year before this song came out there was a good movie "Emporer of the North" that was released about a vicious train watchman and a bum that challanged him to throw him off of a frieght train headed for Oregon in the North West in the thirtees. I always wondered if Gord saw that movie before he wrote that song. It would be something if the watchman was actually "Erniest Borgnine" .
