There’s a bar right a cross the street.
He’s got a need he just can’t beat.
Out on the floor he shuf fles his feet a way.
He’ll get the girl ’cause he looks so fine.
He’s gon na win her ev ’ry time.
He knows he will.
He’s (B7)dressed to kill.
He’s a night owl.
Move on,
There’s a heart of a (Em)night owl call ing.
To be long,
she’s cry in’ in the night.
Be strong,
find the heart of the (Em)night owl fall ing.
Stay up ’til dawn, un (Am)til the night has gone.
