When I was young left my home and I went away to Vegas

With my guitar and my dreams I had to try to play and sing in Vegas

But my mama told me I was wrong and she begged me to stay at home

But my will was strong and I had to make it big in Vegas

They put my name up in lights where I'm playing and the lines out in front will be long

I'll get a standing ovation from the people when I start to sing my songs

When I turn 'em on in Vegas



Well I've played every honky tonk and smokey bar in Vegas

And I guess that I don't have what it takes for Las Vegas

But my dreams still linger on though my hopes're almost gone

But my will is strong and I gotta make it big in Vegas

They put my name up in lights...

La la la la la la la la la la big in Vegas la la la la la la la la la la big in Vegas
