Boys in the Trees album at Amazon.com
Carly Simon's, "You're So Vain"
The Lyrics:
Well, I hear you went up to Saratoga,
And your horse naturally won.
Then you flew your Lear Jet up to Nova Scotia
To see a total eclipse of the Sun.
Why:
First probably refers to Saratoga Springs, New York, a major horse-racing site. Then refers to the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. Parts of it were in the path of an actual total solar eclipse in 1972. And then there's the Sun, if we can count real places out of this world.
