Leaving Las Vegas |
| Life springs eternal |
| On a gaudy neon street |
| Not that I care at all |
| I spent the best part of my losing streak |
| In an Army Jeep |
| For what I can’t recall |
| Oh I’m banging on my TV set |
| And I check the odds |
| And I place my bet |
| I pour a drink |
| And I pull the blind |
| And I wonder what I’ll find |
| I’m Leaving Las Vegas |
| Lights so bright |
| Palm sweat, blackjack |
| On a Saturday night |
| Leaving Las Vegas |
| Leaving for good, for good |
| I’m leaving for good |
| I’m leaving for good |
| Used to be I could drive up to Barstow for the night |
| Find some crossroad trucker |
| To demonstrate his might |
| But these days it seems |
| Nowhere is far enough away |
| So I’m leaving Las Vegas today |
| I’m standing in the middle of the desert |
| Waiting for my ship to come in But now no joker, no jack, no king |
| Can take this loser hand |
| And make it win |
| I quit my job as a dancer |
| At the Lido Des Girls |
| Dealing blackjack until one or two |
| Such a muddy line between |
| The things you want |
| And the things you have to do |
| I’m leaving Las Vegas |
| And I won’t be back |
| No I won’t be back |
| Not this time |
