Pearl

First star I see tonight,

I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight.



A bankeræ?ᯠdaughter 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 bankeræ?ᯠdaughter 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.



Hereæ?ᯠa wish for a runaway girl;

Hereæ?ᯠa prayer for honky-tonk Pearl---

Hope she finds someplace outta this world

Where she feels at home.



First star I see tonight,

I wish I may, I wish I might...

First star (first star)

I see tonight (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.
