Lyrics:

In a hand painted night, me and Gypsy Scotty are partners
At the Hotel Flamingo, wearing black market shoes
This loud Cuban band is crucifying John Lennon
No one wants to be lonely, No one wants to sing the blues

Shes perched like a parrot, on his tuxedo shoulder
Christ, what's she doing with him, she could be dancing with me
She stirs the ice in her glass with her elegant finger
I want to be what shes drinking, yeah, I just want to be

I saw you first
I'm the first one tonight
I saw you first
Don't that give me the right
To move around your heart
Everyone's lookin'

On a moon spattered road in her parrot rebozo
Gypsy Scottys driving his big long yellow car
She flies like a bird over his shoulder
She whispers in his ear, boy, you are my star

I saw you first
I'm the first one tonight
I saw you first
Don't that give me the right
To move around your heart
Everyone's lookin'

In the bone colored dawn, me and Gypsy Scotty are singin
The radio is playin'
She left her shoes out in the back
He tells me a story about some girl he knows in Kentucky
He just made that story up, there ain't no girl like that

I saw you first
I'm the first one tonight
I saw you first
Don't that give me the right
To move around your heart
Everyone's lookin'
But I saw you first
