Lyrics
STRANDED IN VEGAS
(NURREDIN)
WELL I'VE LOST ALL MY WAGES,I'M STRANDED IN VEGAS
TRYING TO FIND MY WAY HOME
I CAME OUT WEST,HOPING FOR THE BEST
LOOKING TO FIND A NEW ME
I WITNESSED A STICKUP,SO I'M LOADING THE PICKUP
HEADING BACK TO TENNESSEE
I HAD STARS IN MY EYES AND I'D FANTASIZE
ABOUT MAKING IT BIG ON MY OWN
BUT I LOST ALL MY WAGES,AND I'M STRANDED IN VEGAS
TRYING TO FIND MY WAY HOME
YES I'M SORELY TESTED,AND I CAN'T GET ARRESTED
PLAYING MY GUITAR
I'M STAYING ALIVE BY PLAYING IN DIVES
FOR DRINKS AND TIPS IN A JAR
I'VE SEEN IT ALL,ME AND MY LES PAUL
AND ALL OF MY BUDDIES ARE STONED
AND I'VE LOST ALL MY WAGES,I'M STRANDED IN VEGAS
TRYING TO FIND MY WAY HOME
WELL I'VE GOT PROBLEMS,AND I'M TRYING TO SOLVE 'EM
BUT THE SLOTS WON'T LEAVE ME ALONE
WELL I'VE LOST ALL MY WAGES,I'M STRANDED IN VEGAS
TRYING TO FIND MY WAY HOME
YES I'VE LOST ALL MY WAGES,I'M STRANDED IN VEGAS
TRYING TO FIND MY WAY HOME
