Lifestyles seem to change in a "Blink of an eye"
until every last cents spent, we'll continue to try
plenty of fortune for this city that doesn't sleep
some loose it all just getting in ...way too deep!
Those neon lights and glamour affixes the mind
while 'Lady luck whispers to Lay it all on the line
Bottomless whiskey glasses stir hopes in the pot
simple winnings from a few hands that were hot
Don't forget beggars who are down on their luck
saying what they must to con you out of a buck
Buzzers and bells ring loudly through the night air
and another becomes rich screaming without care
A fever takes over as the cards lay across the felt
life savings gone from a bad hand that was dealt
Many up for days knowing the next hands the one
afraid to walk away or there life will come undone
Laughter cries out when the dice stop on eleven
as this city without sleep goes for another 24/7!
Las Vegas
