The morning sun is high up there in the sky Long before it touches my ole half worn out hide I must have been an owl in former life I wile away the days oh but when it's night I fly
And I was born to the night Like the stars that fill the sky A child of the dark searchin' for the light I was born to the night
Ain't sayin' that it's right stayin' up all night But there's no way to change without travelin' back in time I'm settled in my ways like an ole firefly By day I tend to fade aw but in the night I shine
And I was born to the night...
Ain't nothin' I can do to keep from losin' you I could change a line or two aw but that won't change the tune
I was born to the night... I was born to the night
