The Mamas & The Papas pearl

Select language to translate this lyric

First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight



A banker's daughter or a runaway girl

A little lady or a honky-tonk Pearl

Has to find someplace in this world

Where she feels at home



A banker's daughter is so hard to deceive

A little lady is so hard to please

Honky-tonk Pearl wears her heart on her sleeve

And her heart will not grow cold



First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight



Here's a wish for a runaway girl

Here's a prayer for honky-tonk Pearl

Hope she finds someplace out of this world

Where she feels at home



First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might

First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might



I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight
