VERSE:
Life springs eternal On a gaudy neon street Not that I care at all I spent the best part of my losing streak In an Army Jeep For what I can't recall Oh I'm begging my tv set And I check the odds And I place my bet Pour a drink And pull the blind And I wonder what I'll find
CHORUS:
Leaving Las Vegas Lights so bright Palm sweat blackjack On a Saturday night Leaving Las Vegas Leaving for good Leaving for good
Used to be I could drive up to Barstow for the night Find some crossroad trucker to demonstrate his might But these days it seems nowhere is far enough away So I'm leaving Las Vegas today
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I'm standing in the middle of the desert Waiting for my ship to come in But no joker, no jack, no king Can take this loser hand and make it win
CHORUS
VERSE:
I quit my job as a dancer at the Lido des Girls Dealing blackjack until one or two Such a muddly line between the things you want And the things you have to do
CHORUS
