Lyrics
Black tie, white tuxedo
Pair of five hundred dollar shoes
Summer night at the casino
You've got a lot to loose
Talk's cheap, money's easy
You can feel it in the air
The boys, they're grinning kind of cheesy
They look like lions in their lair
Hangin' from the lampshades
Crawlin' on the floor
Dancin' on the tables
Callin' out for more
Black tie at the casino
24 carat smiles
Red dress, diamond necklace
Pair of thousand dollar heels
She's got a body like an avatar
More phantasy than real
All the gentlemen she passes by
Know just where she goes
When she walks across the room
Every man amongst them knows
Hangin' from the lampshades
Crawlin' on the floor
Dancin' on the tables
Callin' out for more
Red dress at the casino
Wouldn't you love to know how she feels?
Red dress white tuxedo both put five grand on nine
Roulette wheel keeps spinnin' for the longest time
When it stops the croupier says 'Black number ten'
What the hell there's more where that came from
They let it spin again
Red dress white tuxedo summer night at the casino
