    Jamal, I'm 67 years old and love this music. You don't know how it makes me feel to see younger folks love and appreciate this music. You are my soul brother. God bless you and God bless this music that brings folks together. I watch your videos all the time and have much respect for you.

      There is a bar right across the street
      He's got a need he just can't beat
      Out on the floor he shuffles his feet away
      He'll get the girl 'cause he looks so fine
      He's gonna win her every time
      He knows he will, he's dressed to kill
      He's a night owl
      Move on, there's a howl of a night owl calling
      To belong, she's crying in the night
      Be strong, find the heart of a night owl falling
      Stay up till dawn until the night is gone
      What will become of the restless kind
      Where do they go when they've done their time
      Wearing their hearts out on the line for all to see
      Must be the gypsy in their soul
      They have a need to rock and roll
      They always will, they're out there still
      They're the night owls
      Move on, there's a howl of a night owl calling
      To belong, she's crying in the night
      Be strong, find the heart of a night owl falling
      Stay up till dawn until the night is gone
      There is a bar right across the street
      He's got a need he just can't beat
      Out on the floor he shuffles his feet away
      He'll get the girl 'cause he looks so fine

    Funny thing about this song, it came out the year my grandmother died. I was about 7. We'd go to the hospital every day and almost every day I'd hear this song in the car on the way. It sounds like it'd bring up sad memories but it doesn't, it's just really connected to a very specific time and place in my memory. I've always loved it.

    The beauty of the Little River Band is that they sounded just as good live. It wasn't all studio tricks, like happens today. They would do that acapella intro to this song, and it was just as clean and tight. Absolutely one of the best bands that I have ever seen live. (And I probably saw them 20+ times back in the day.)
