Bright light city gonna set my soul 
Gonna set my soul on fire, 
Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn, 
So get those stakes up higher, 
There's a thousand pretty women waitin' out there 
And they're all living devil may care 
And I'm just the devil with love to spare, 
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas 

How I wish that there were more 
Than the twenty-four hours in the day 
'Cause even if there were forty more 
I wouldn't sleep a minute away, 
Oh, there's black jack and poker and the roulette wheel, 
fortune won and lost on every deal, 
All you need's a strong heart and a nerve of steel, 
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas 

Viva Las Vegas with you neon flashing 
And your one arm bandits crashing, 
All those hopes down the drain, 
Viva Las Vegas turning day into nighttime, 
Turning night into daytime, 
If you see it once 
You'll never be the same again 

I'm gonna keep on [bad word]  
I'm gonna have me some fun, 
If it costs me my very last dime, 
If I wind up broke up well, 
I'll always remember that I had a swinging time 
I'm gonna give it everything I've got 
Lady luck, please let the dice stay hot, 
Let me shoot a seven with every shot, 
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
