Sheryl Crow Leaving Las Vegas (acoustic) 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 I check the odds and I place my bet
I pour a drink and I pull the blinds
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 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

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'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

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, 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

I'm leaving Las Vegas and I won't be back
No I won't be back, not this time
