Big In Vegas (1969)
When I was young and left my home and went away to Vegas
With my guitar and my dreams I had to try to play and sing in Vegas
But my mama told me I was wrong and she begged me to stay at home
But my will was strong and I had to make it big in Vegas

They'll put my name up in light where I'm playing
And the lines out in front will be long
I'll got a standing ovation from the people
When I start to sing my song when I turn em on in Vegas

Well I played every honky-tonk and smoky bar in Vegas
And I guess that I don't have want it takes for Las Vegas

But me dreams still linger on thou my faith is almost gone
But my will was strong and I had to make it big in Vegas

They'll put my name up in light where I'm playing
And the lines out in front will be long
I'll got a standing ovation from the people
When I start to sing my song when I turn em on in Vegas

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la in Vegas
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la in Vegas
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la in Vegas
