Royal Crown Revue Lyrics
"Viva Las Vegas"

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' the 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 twenty-four hours in the day

Now even if there were forty more

I wouldn't sleep a minute away

Oh, the black jack and poker and the 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 with you neon flashin'

And your one arm bandits crashin'

All your 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 then I'll always remember

That I had a swingin' time

Well, I'm gonna give it everything I've got

A lady luck please, let the dice stay hot

And I'm gonna seven with every shot

Viva Las Vegas

Viva Las Vegas

Viva Las Vegas

Viva, Viva Las Vegas
