James Taylor  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 stringbean  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
