Lyrics Night Owl - Anne Murray

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
