(Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman)
|
Bright light city gonna set my soul
|
Gonna set my soul on fire
|
Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn,
|
So get those stakes up higher
|
There's a thousand pretty women waitin' out there
|
And they're all livin' devil may care
|
And I'm just the devil with love to spare
|
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
|
|
How I wish that there were more
|
Than the twenty-four hours in the day
|
'Cause even if there were forty more
|
I wouldn't sleep a minute away
|
Oh, there's black jack and poker and the roulette wheel
|
A fortune won and lost on ev'ry deal
|
All you need's a strong heart and a nerve of steel
|
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
|
|
Viva Las Vegas with you neon flashin'
|
And your one armbandits crashin'
|
All those hopes down the drain
|
Viva Las Vegas turnin' day into nighttime
|
Turnin' night into daytime
|
If you see it once
|
You'll never be the same again
|
|
I'm gonna keep on the run
|
I'm gonna have me some fun
|
If it costs me my very last dime
|
If I wind up broke up well
|
I'll always remember that I had a swingin' time
|
I'm gonna give it ev'rything I've got
|
Lady luck please let the dice stay hot
|
Let me shout a seven with ev'ry shot
|
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas,
|
Viva, Viva Las Vegas
|
