Lyrics
(VERSE 1)
Out in the desert in Nevada state
Marriage out there is a hot dry date
The Elvis Presley guy sings his song
VIVA Las Vegas
VIVA Las Vegas
VIVA Las Vegas
It's such a crazy town
Leaving the chapel it all breaks down
Pawn everything that he owns
Can't get any bars on the phone
(CHORUS)
Don't confuse money with what he was saying
Don't confused money with wild women dancing
Don't confuse money with finding true love
Don't confuse true love with the hot wet feeling
(VERSE 2)
Back to New Jersey in Atlantic City
The boardwalk always seems so pretty
On the shore, the sound of singing
VIVA New Jersey
VIVA New Jersey
VIVA New Jersey
It's a crazy place
On the river hoping for an ace
Twenty dollars left and all alone
Can't get any bars on the phone
(CHORUS)
(VERSE 3)
D G G C A A
Head off to the reservation
Have a few more strong libations
Lose your money to the tribal nation
VIVA Wisconsin
VIVA Wisconsin
VIVA Wisconsin
It's a crazy state
Back to Vegas and the red eye's late
Booze and blackjack are the only dates
The Elvis Presley guy sings his song
VIVA Las Vegas
VIVA Las Vegas
VIVA Las Vegas
It's such a crazy town
(CHORUS)
(OUTRO)
True love, blue love, new love, true love, you never knew love
