big in vegas

Singer:buck owens

when i was young i left my home

and went away

to vegas

with my guitar and my dreams

i had to try to play and sing

in vegas

but my momma told me i was wrong

and she begged me to stay at home

but my will was strong and

i had to make it big

in vegas

they'll put my name up in lights where i play

and the lines out in front will be long

i'll get a standing ovation from the people

when i start to sing my song

when i turn 'em on in vegas

well i've played every honky tonk

and smokey bar

in vegas

and i guess i don't have

what it takes

for las vegas

but my dreams still linger on

oh

my faith is almost gone

but my will is strong and

i've gotta make it big

in vegas

they'll put my name up in lights where i play

and the lines out in front will be long

i'll get a standing ovation from the people

when i start to sing my song

when i turn 'em on in vegas
