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 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.
