^A Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like m ^E e
Ev'ry t ^D ime I hit your crystal city
You kn ^A ow you're gonna make a wreck out of m ^E e
Well, the f ^E irst time I lose a drink of whiskey
And the second time I lose a drink of gin,
Third time I lose a drink of anything
Cause I think I'm gonna win.
^A Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like m ^E e
^A Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like m ^E e

You ^A know you're gonna make a wreck out of ^E me
^A Well, the queen of spades is a friend of mine
The queen of hearts is a bitch
^A Some day when I clean up my mind
^A I'll think I'm gonna win.
^A Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like m ^E e

Just trying to get ahead,
Spend all day at the Holiday Inn
Just trying to get out of bed
^A Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like m ^E e
^A Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like m ^E e
Ev'ry t ^D ime I hit your crystal city

You kn ^A ow you're gonna make a wreck out of m ^E e
Ev'ry t ^D ime I hit your crystal city
You kn ^A ow you're gonna make a wreck out of m ^E e
