   Las Vegas Songs
   Las Vegas Songs
I'm sitting here thinking about music....
While I'm sure there are many cities mentioned in song, Las vegas seems to be right up there with the best of them....

Viva Las Vegas, Elvis, but recently redone by ZZ Top
or how about Leaving Las Vegas, C Crow
Or even Frankie Lane, Luck be a Lady

I'm sure we all have our favorites....so, post them!

Well, it reminds me of Las Vegas. Bob Seger, "Still the Same"...you always won everytime you placed a bet'...you're still damn good no one's gotten to you yet..you always said the cards would never do you wrong, the trick you said was never play the game too long, a gambler's share the only risk that you would take, the only loss you could foresake, the only bluff you couldn't fake" and you're still the same..moving game to game no one's standing in your way...Turning on the charm, long enough to get you by,...Somethings never change...you're still the same.....Baby, babe, you're still the same........There you stood, everybody watched you play...I just turned and walked way I had nothing left to say....'cause you're still the same.somethings never change...(okay, I'll quit....)

I LUV BOB SEGER!

My husband and I married in Vegas at The Little Church of the West TODAY (2/8) in 1996. I remember the song from Faith Hill that was out around that time and goes like this:

Let's Go To Vegas, by Faith Hill

Lyin' on the bank of the river
Stars are dancin', Lord it's hot
Holdin' you is what I live for
I just had a crazy thought

Hey baby, let's go to Vegas
Kiss the single life goodbye
Hey baby, let's go to Vegas
Bet on love and let it ride

We'll find a little wedding chapel
A pair of rings and a preacher too
Underneath the neon steeple
We'll take a gamble and say "I do"

Hey baby, let's go to Vegas
Kiss the single life goodbye
Hey baby, let's go to Vegas
Bet on love and let it ride

Viva Las Vegas, sparklin' lights
Dangerous livin', tumblin' dice
You're my ace in the hole now honey
And I'm your lady luck
Pack a few things and a little money
And put'em in the truck

Hey baby, let's go to Vegas
Kiss the single life goodbye
Hey baby, let's go to Vegas
Bet on love and let it ride
Bet on love and let it ride
Bet on love and let it ride

Dating myself? Well....how about those who think of Dean Martin or Frankie? Huh? Bet you can hum a few bars of Seger yourself, Mr. Motorcycle Man...how about another BS song, "Roll Away"? See that one reminds me of Vegas too a little. Hopping on a Harley and heading Westbound....

Another one is "Wheel of Fortune"...can't think of who sings it for fear of "dating myself". smile I'll think of others.
