Joe: When you look up songs at the Indiana University site, click the "Long Display" button and you get a bit more information, e.g.:

First Line: Night time comes a creepin', ev'rything is still,
Chorus First Line: Waitin' in the shadows, jester welcome you,

That's enough to confirm it's the right song, although I don't know what to make of the phrase "jester welcome you."
