Lyric First Look

By: Jimmy Buffett
1986
Fun tickets in my pocket, visions in my brain
Grandfather always told me if I went down
I might never come back again

I studied the language tapes
And I, I read all the books
Still nothing prepared me for my
Very first look

Chorus:
It was my first look
Baby that s all it took
Was my first look
Around

I think I want to go flyin
But I don t wanna leave the ground
So I ll just cruise on my landing gear
And taxi round Rio town
Up to the mountain, down to the sea
Take me to Leblon where the samba queen a-waits for me

Chorus:
It was my first look
That s when I swallowed the hook
On my first look
Around

Amor a primeira vista
Voce nao, quer que o insista
Amor a primeira vista
Reacao quimica (quimica) quimica

Amor a primeira vista
Voce nao, quer que o insista
Amor a primeira vista
Reacao quimica (quimica) quimica

Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh

Aah aah
Aah aah
Aah aah
Aah aah

Six days later I was feeling like a missing link (oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo)
When my friends told me hey Jimmy
It must have been the hoodlum drink (hoodlum drink)
Now it s time for siestas
And a belly full of rice and beans
And figure if I m brave enough
To repeat the whole crazy scene

Chorus:
On my first look
That s when I swallowed the hook
On my first look
Around

Amor a primeira vista
Voce nao, quer que o insista
Amor a primeira vista
Reacao quimica (quimica) quimica

Amor a primeira vista
Voce nao, quer que o insista
Amor a primeira vista
Reacao quimica (quimica) quimica
