Night Owl

A catfish, he tends to groove on the water

It's just where he's bound to be

And a monkey kinds of flashes on fruits and bananas

So he lives in the top of a tree

But my eyes are made for darkness

And so the nighttime is right for me

Said I'm a night owl, honey

Sleep all day long

Now most folks they like the good day time

They like to see the shining sun

They're up in the morning

Off and running

Till they're too tired for having fun

But when the sun goes down

And them bright light shine

My daytime has just begun

I'm a night owl, honey

Sleep all day long

Said turn off that bright light, baby

You're just about to drive me blind

Draw them curtains for me, mama

You watch and you'll see

How my love light shines

Now there's two sides to this great big world

And one of them is always night

Hey, if you can take care

Of business in the sunshine, baby

I guess you're gonna be alright

But don't come looking for string bean

To lend you a hand

Because my eyes they can't stand the light

No, I'm a night owl, honey

Sleep all, sleep all day long

I said sleep all day long

I'm a night owl, honey
