Dire Straits What's the Matter Baby? song lyrics

There's a shadow hanging over the valley

A total eclipse of the moon

Closing up the gates of the city

The wind it plays a wild tune

Don't you put a lock on your window

Don't you put the bar on your door

Don't you cry for the rain in the sky

You've seen the storm before

Yeah, now what's the matter with you, baby?

Baby, what's the matter now?

What's the matter, you're running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man yell?

Come on, tell me what's the matter with you, baby?

Baby, what's the matter now?

What's the matter, you're running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man yell?

Then lightning going to strike at midnight

Thunder going to shake the ground

Don't you flinch, don't give a inch

Just a let the flood come down

Come, tell me, what's the matter with you, baby?

Baby, what's the matter now?

Tell me what's the matter, you're running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man?

Come on, tell me what's the matter with you, baby?

Baby, what's the matter now?

What's the matter you're running in the shadows

Every time you hear the wild man yell?
