Sheryl Crow And Friends (1999) Leaving Las Vegas Lyrics

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 pull the blind
And I wonder what I'll find

Chorus:
Leaving Las Vegas
Light so bright
Palm sweat,blackjack
On Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good
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

Chorus

Leaving Las Vegas
Light so bright
Palm sweat,blackjack
On Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good
Leaving for good

I'm standing in the middle of the desert
Waiting for my shio to come in
But no joker,no jack,no king
Can take this losing hand
And make it win

Chorus

Leaving Las Vegas
Light so bright
Palm sweat,blackjack
On Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good
Leaving for good

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

Chorus

Leaving Las Vegas
Light so bright
Palm sweat,blackjack
On Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good
Leaving for good.
