Everyone was lookin', but I saw you first
I want to be what she's drinking, yeah I just want to be
In the bone colored dawn, me and Gypsy Scotty are singin'
Gypsy Scotty is driving his big long yellow car
She stirs the ice in her glass with her elegant finger
On a moon spattered road in her parrot Rebozo
He tells me a story about some girl he knows in Kentucky
But I saw you first, I'm the first one tonight
I saw you first, don't that give me the right?
But I saw you first, I'm the first one tonight
Christ, what's she doing with him, she could be dancing with me
Yes I saw you first, don't that give me the right
To move around in your heart
Everyone was lookin', but I saw you first
Everyone was lookin'
Yes I saw you first, don't that give me the right?
She flies like a bird over his shoulder
To move around in your heart
I saw you first, I'm the first one tonight
To move around in your heart
This loud Cuban band is crucifying John Lennon
The radio is playin', she left her shoes out in the back
Se whispers in his ear, boy, you are my star
She's perched like a parrot on his tuxedo shoulder
He just made that story up, there ain't no girl like that
No one wants to be lonely, no one wants to sing the blues
