Vegas

(With Jeannie Bare)

Baby, we're gonna go to Vegas
Win more money than you've ever seen
Far as this pickup truck
And forty-eight bucks will take us
Baby, we're gonna chase that dream
Going to Vegas
Turn our money green, yeah

Five days a week
Eight hours a day
Too damn much work
And not enough pay

So pack our bags
And fill up the tank
Leave the kids with your mother
Leave the dogs with your brother
I'll open up a piggy bank

Cause, baby, we're gonna go to Vegas
Win more money than you've ever seen
Far as this pickup truck
And forty-eight bucks will take us
Baby, we're gonna chase that dream
Going to Vegas
Turn our money green

Here we are
We're heading back home
Gas tank empty
And money all gone

We missed that rainbow
It's a drizzling rain
Let me dry your tears
Cause in a couple more years
We can go back and try it again

Yeah, baby, we're gonna go to Vegas
Win more money than you've ever seen
Far as this pickup truck
And forty-eight bucks will take us
Baby, we're gonna chase that dream
Going to Vegas
Turn our money green

Yeah, baby, we're gonna go to Vegas
Win more money than you've ever seen
