[00:28.58]Life springs eternal
[00:30.83]On a gaudy neon street
[00:32.89]
[00:34.88]Not that I care at all
[00:36.94]
[00:40.75]I spent the best part of my losing streak
[00:44.93]In an army jeep
[00:46.11]
[00:47.30]For what I cant recall
[00:48.92]
[00:52.36]Oh Im banging on my TV set
[00:55.72]
[00:58.16]And I check the odds
[00:59.97]
[01:01.09]And I place my bet
[01:03.15]
[01:04.21]I pour a drink
[01:05.58]
[01:07.08]And I pull the blind
[01:08.89]
[01:10.08]And I wonder what Ill find
[01:12.07]
[01:12.88]I'm leaving Las Vegas
[01:15.19]
[01:19.93]Lights so bright
[01:21.50]
