So, I went to Vegas with my sisters to see Collective Soul over the weekend. And now, according to time honored 2fer tradition, I brought a little bit home for all of you!
Bright light city gonna set my soul
Gonna set my soul on fire
Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn,
So get those stakes up higher
There's a thousand pretty women waitin' out there
And they're all livin' devil may care
And I'm just the devil with love to spare
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
How I wish that there were more
Than the twenty-four hours in the day
'Cause even if there were forty more
I wouldn't sleep a minute away
Oh, there's black jack and poker and the roulette wheel
A fortune won and lost on every deal
All you need's a strong heart and a nerve of steel
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas with you neon flashin'
And your one armbandits crashin'
All those hopes down the drain
Viva Las Vegas turnin' day into nighttime
Turnin' night into daytime
If you see it once
You'll never be the same again
I'm gonna keep on the run
I'm gonna have me some fun
If it costs me my very last dime
If I wind up broke up well
I'll always remember that I had a swingin' time
I'm gonna give it everything I've got
Lady luck please let the dice stay hot
Let me shoot a seven with every shot
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas,Viva Las Vegas
Viva, Viva Las Vegas
I can say this life is
Much better today
Everything turns right if
Wrong gets in the way
Yeah I've got the feeling
It's something I find hard to explain
See I wasn't looking
But girl I'm glad I fell in your way
Then she says oh boy, oh boy
Count your lucky stars
Count what you've been wishing for
Oh boy, oh boy
Count the life you lead
Count how you are now adored
I can say the sun
Burns much brighter today
I can see my path though
Clouds darken my way
Yeah I've got this feeling
It's something I find hard to explain
See I wasn't looking
But girl I'm glad I fell in your way
[chorus]
She said she was tired of
Watching me just wilt and bleed
She said I'm like Jesus
I save those who do believe
Do you, do you believe?
[chorus]
Let me rock your socks off every Tuesday with two songs that relate to each other in whatever way I see fit.
