ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me
ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me
every time i hit your crystal city you know
you’re gonna make a wreck outta me
well, the first time i lose i drink whiskey
second time i lose i drink gin
third time i lose i drink anything
’cause i think i’m gonna win
ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me, no
ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me
every time i hit your crystal city you know
you’re gonna make a wreck outta me
well, the queen of spades is a friend of mine
the queen of hearts, she’s a b-tch
someday when i clean up my mind
i’ll find out which is which
ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me
ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me
every time i hit your crystal city you know
you’re gonna make a wreck outta me
well, i spend all night with the dealer
tryin’ to get ahead
spend all day at the holiday inn
tryin’ to get out of bed
ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me
ooh, las vegas
ain’t no place for a poor girl like me
every time i hit your crystal city you know
you’re gonna make a wreck outta me
