Lyrics
Verse
It was a cold and dusty night the mood was just right for a midnight rendezvous I drove up to my girlfriend's house threw a rock as she lit up the room She said I'll be right there just hunker down or you gonna wake my dad, she said let's go to Vegas cause I can't take it I want you to be my man
Lift
So I cranked up the engine, pinned the gas on the floor She screamed go baby, yeah I peeled out for sure
Chorus
Vegas or Bust she had that look of lust and I kept on driving away, I kept on driving away, I kept on driving away -aye-aye-aye
Vegas or Bust - Vegas or Bust
The road was getting tired, but my eyes were getting wider staring at my sweet thing, she turned to me side saddle with her panties all set a blaze, she said pullover please, put me at ease your body is on my mind, you can call me old fashion but hold back your passion let's get married and do things right
Lift
Chorus
Instrumental Break
We finally drove over that old Nevada border with Vegas in our sights, there it was a chapel on a hill with bright blue neon lights, bursted through the doors like Hurricane George with marriage on our minds, said pastor please, he said yes indeed I pronounce you man and wife
Lift - 2nd Version
I cranked up my engine, dropped my jeans on the floor, she screamed go baby, Yeah it's show time for sure
Chorus 2nd Version
Vegas or Bust we had our night of fun and I kept on driving away, I kept on driving away, I kept on driving away -aye-aye-aye Vegas or Bust-Vegas or Bust-Vegas or Bust-Vegas or Bust
