Night Owl

Sun's going down, I'm just waking up
Sipping on tequila from a coffee cup
When the red light's blinking
It's just the moon, my thinking and me
Getting dressed up just to go nowhere
Set my back porch bar and my smoking chair
When I'm getting good and wide awake
That's when I like a dream

Ooh
I get to coming alive in the dead of the night
Ooh
Yeah, I see with my heart when I'm lost in the dark
Like a night owl, I just hang out
Lonesome on my ways
Ooh
Just waiting on a chance to sing

When the stars burn out I'll be turning it in
Pulling down my shades, catch my second wind
And when I hear those crickets I'll be up and at it again

Ooh
I get to coming alive in the dead of the night
Ooh
Yeah, I see with my heart when I'm lost in the dark
Like a night owl, I just hang out
Lonesome on my ways
Ooh
Just waiting on a chance to sing, yeah

Ooh
I get to coming alive in the dead of the night
Ooh
Yeah, I see with my heart when I'm lost in the dark
Like a night owl, I just hang out
Lonesome on my ways
Ooh
Just waiting on a chance to sing
Ooh
Just waiting on a chance to sing
Yeah
