Leaving Las Vegas - Sheryl Crow

Life springs eternalOn a gaudy neon streetNot that I care at allI spent the best part of my losing streakIn an Army JeepFor what I can't recallOh I'm banging on my TV setAnd I check the oddsAnd I place my betI pour a drinkAnd I pull the blindAnd I wonder what I'll find [Chorus]I'm Leaving Las VegasLights so brightPalm sweat, blackjackOn a Saturday nightLeaving Las VegasLeaving for good, for goodI'm leaving for goodI'm leaving for goodUsed to be I could drive up toBarstow for the nightFind some crossroad truckerTo demonstrate his mightBut these days it seemsNowhere is far enough awaySo I'm leaving Las Vegas todayChorusI'm standing in the middle of the desertWaiting for my ship to come inBut now no joker, no jack, no kingCan take this loser handAnd make it winChorusI quit my job as a dancerAt the Lido Des GirlsDealing blackjack until one or twoSuch a muddy line betweenThe things you wantAnd the things you have to doChorusI'm leaving Las VegasAnd I won't be backNo I won't be backNot this time
