Written by: John Mellencamp and George Green
2
In a hand painted night, me and Gypsy Scotty are partners
3
At the Hotel Flamingo, wearin black market shoes
4
This loud Cuban band is crucifying John Lennon
5
No one wants to be lonely, no one wants to sing the blues
6
She's perched like a parrot on his tuxedo shoulder
7
Christ, what's she doing with him she could be dancing with me
8
She stirs the ice in her glass with her elegant finger
9
I want to be what she's drinking, yeah I just want to be
10
I saw you first
11
I'm the first one tonight
12
I saw you first
13
Don't that give me the right
14
To move around in your heart
15
Everyone was lookin
16
But I saw you first
17
On a moon spattered road in her parrot rebozo
18
Gypsy Scotty is driving his big long yellow car
19
She flies like a bird over his shoulder
20
Se whispers in his ear, boy, you are my star
21
But I saw you first
22
I'm the first one tonight
23
Yes I saw you first
24
Don't that give me the right
25
To move around in your heart
26
Everyone was lookin.....
27
In the bone colored dawn, me and Gypsy Scotty are singin'
28
The radio is playin, she left her shoes out in the back
29
He tells me a story about some girl he knows in Kentucky
30
He just made that story up, there ain't no girl like that
31
But I saw you first
32
I'm the first one tonight
33
Yes I saw you first
34
Don't that give me the right
35
To move around in your heart
36
Everyone was lookin
37
But I saw you first
38
I saw you first
