| Lyrics: | (Gram ParsonsRik Grech)
Ooh, Las Vegas
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Ooh, Las
Vegas
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Every time I hit your crystal city you
know
You're gonna make a wreck outta me
Well, the first time I lose I drink
whiskey
Second time I lose I drink gin
Third time I lose I drink anything
'cause I think
I'm gonna win
Ooh, Las Vegas
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Ooh, Las
Vegas
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Every time I hit your crystal city you
know
You're gonna make a wreck outta me
Well, the Queen of Spades is a friend of
mine
The Queen of Hearts is a bitch
Someday when I clean up my mind
I'll find out which
is a which
Ooh, Las Vegas
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Ooh, Las
Vegas
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Every time I hit your crystal city you
know
You're gonna make a wreck outta me
Well, I spend all night with the
dealer
Tryin' to get ahead
Spend all day at the Holiday Inn
Tryin' to get out of
bed
Ooh, Las Vegas
Ain't no place for a poor boy like me
Ooh, Las Vegas
Ain't
no place for a poor boy like me
Every time I hit your crystal city you know
You're gonna
make a wreck outta me |
