Viva Las Vegas Lyrics

“Viva Las Vegas”
(originally by Elvis Presley)

Bright light city gonna set my soul, gonna set my soul on fire
There’s a whole lot of money that’s ready to burn
So get those stakes up higher
There’s a thousand pretty women just a-waitin out there
And they’re all livin’ devil-may-care
And I’m just the devil with a love to spare
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas

And how I wish that there were more
Than twenty-four hours in the day
But even if there were forty more
I wouldn’t sleep a minute away
Oh, there’s blackjack and poker and a roulette wheel
A fortune won and lost on every deal
All you need’s a strong heart and a nerve of steel
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas

Viva Las Vegas with your neon flashin’
And your one-armed bandits crashin’
All those hopes down the drain
Viva Las Vegas turnin’ day into nighttime
Turn the night into daytime
If you see it once, you’ll never come home 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
Then I’ll always remember that I had a swingin’ time
I’m gonna give it everything I’ve got
Lady Luck please let the dice stay hot
Let me shoot a seven with every shot
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva, Viva
