Little armored wanderer, shufflin’ through the leaves Nose down in the shadows, sniffin’ where the grubs might be Stumblin’ like he’s dreamin’, but he knows his midnight route From the edge of my small woods to the yard — he’s so cute Oh, creatures of the night Livin’ quiet, livin’ wild Little creatures of nature Every one of them beguiled Oh, creatures of the night Movin’ soft, movin’ free Every whisper in the shadows Feels like home to me Cotton‑tail sprinters, frozen in the moonlit glow Ears high like antennas, catchin’ secrets only they know Tip‑toe through the clover, ready for a sudden flight But they linger in the stillness, keepin’ watch on every light Oh, creatures of the night Livin’ quiet, livin’ wild Little creatures of nature Every one of them beguiled Oh, creatures of the night Movin’ soft, movin’ free Every whisper in the shadows Feels like home to me Down beneath my footsteps, in tunnels cool and deep Little mole diggin’, while the whole world’s fast asleep Pushin’ up the ridges, makin’ highways underground Tiny engineer of darkness, never makin’ a sound Oh, creatures of the night Livin’ quiet, livin’ wild Little creatures of nature Every one of them beguiled Oh, creatures of the night Movin’ soft, movin’ free Every whisper in the shadows Feels like home to me And I stand here in the stillness While the moon paints silver lines Every rustle, every whisper Feels like nature’s secret signs In the quiet of the evening Where the wild things take their flight I’m just one more soul out wanderin’ In the heartbeat of the night. Oh, creatures of the night Livin’ quiet, livin’ wild Little creatures of nature Every one of them beguiled Oh, creatures of the night Movin’ soft, movin’ free Every whisper in the shadows Feels like home to me (Feels like home to me) (Feels like home to me)
