Streets Of Las Vegas
by Benny Hester

Album: Benny From Here

Stepped from the plane
Just a young man from Texas
With a southern twang
That gave me away
Life was a game
I was taking all the chances
I made up my mind I was going to play

One more time
There was just no limit
I bet everything I was going to win
Not a hint the odds were against me
I heard it from the crowds
Everywhere I went

chorus:
They were talking about Jesus
On the streets of Las Vegas
When you're gambling with your heart it's in the cards
You'll get lost in the shuffle between the light and the dark
In this town
Jesus is out there, too
On the streets of Las Vegas

Fortunes change hands
In the brightly lit casinos
If the payoff is big it'll make the front page
Nobody sees what happens to the losers
Out on the strip, downtown, and backstage

(chorus)

The glitters of it all can sweep you away
Could someone really love you
When you're walking around in the heat
It's another lonely day
On the streets of Las Vega

(chorus)
