The neon sky burns bright tonight My throat is dry – my chest is tight Must take the risk – can’t walk away The ace is high – I’ve gotta play
An angel stares with burning eyes She beckons me to my surprise Then takes my hand “come on this way” “Tonight my friend – you’ve gotta play”
She suggests something stronger While she’s loading the dice Then serves me Bourbon, with plenty of ice Supplies what I’m craving – yet at a high price Her art of enslaving feels wicked but nice
Still holding onto my last few chips Do I risk it all and take the hit My fate now rests on the turn of a card Still looking cool but sweating hard
Should dreams come true – or fortune lost Will trust my luck – and risk the cost Place my last Dollar in the slot This final spin may be my jackpot
Like a fly that’s drawn towards the light My *** of gold is almost in sight Can’t turn away – I’m enjoying the flight It’s just another Vegas night.
