Las vegas Songtext

von Bob Hillman

In the morning
When the cards are asleep
You can't read but you weep anyway
There' sa hard luck case
With a strip poker face who will say:
Rotgut tequila all around
Two more cards and I'll take you to bed
In the car like I said
I can't quit, I'm ahead
But I'll try
Morning is a lie in Las Vegas

In the morning
When the rumors begin
Of the day stealing into the sky
Did the night finally fall?
Fairy tales, don't believe them at all
Take one good look around
Don't be surprised if the windows insist
That the doors don't exist
And the walls take the fifth
No reply
Morning is a lie in Las Vegas

In the morning
There's an Oklahoma man
Playing two dollar hands with his wife
And the Keno brigade meets the lowlifes who played
Through the night
Is this the end of the world?
Don't tell me the American way
Is a breakfast buffet
And a buck on the bay
Tell me why
Morning is a lie in Las Vegas
