| Ten o’clock, ten-thirty
|
| Eleven o’clock, eleven-thirty
|
| Curfew time
|
| Nite owl strolling down the
|
| Street about the break of day
|
| Oh, nite owl, listen, boy
|
| What you think your mama gonna say
|
| Hey, hey, hey
|
| Wait til you get in the door
|
| Mama told you once before
|
| Whoa, whoa, nite owl
|
| Nite owl strolling with his
|
| Keys swinging in his hand
|
| Oh, owl, the nite owl strutting
|
| Up the stairs like a natural man
|
| Yeah, yeah, yeah
|
| Boy, you must be out your mind
|
| Ain’t you heard of curfew time
|
| Whoa, whoa, nite owl
|
| Your daddy told you long ago
|
| Not to come in late no more
|
| Running over town just like a clown
|
| But you think that he’s a square
|
| And you feel you’ve been everywhere
|
| Wait til tomorrow, you’ll sit down
|
| Oh, nite owl strolling with
|
| His dark glasses on his eyes
|
| Oh, owl, nite owl, listen, boy
|
| Don’t you dare tell daddy no lie
|
| Hey, hey, hey
|
| I said that you were such a silly jerk
|
| Your daddy ought to make you work
|
| Whoa, whoa, nite owl
|
| Your daddy told you long ago
|
| Not to come in late no more
|
| Running over town just like a clown
|
| But you think that he’s a square
|
| And you feel you’ve been everywhere
|
| Wait til tomorrow, you’ll sit down
|
| Oh, nite owl strolling with
|
| His dark glasses on his eyes
|
| Oh, owl, nite owl, listen, boy
|
| Don’t you dare tell daddy no lie
|
| Hey, hey, hey
|
| I said that you were such a silly jerk
|
| Your daddy ought to make you work
|
| Whoa, whoa, nite owl
|
| Whoa, nite owl
|
| You better come in, boy
|
| It’s getting late, i told you
|
| Bout staying out all times of night
