lyrics

RUN TO VEGAS By Matthias Clark

Nothing worse than confusion
Sometimes thats all you got
Life must be pretty tough for you , hangin at the five spot
You’d kill your ambition, if you ever had much
Your living on oblivion and its rough

You go run to Vegas and buy yourself a drink
You run to vegas the only place that you can think
It doesn't matter what you do all day
It just matters late at night
Go run to Vegas
Where all your friends are strangers
Thank you very much

I shoulda known it
The way you said it
Like some kinda missionary man
Headed out to save the world
Maybe you’ll be a pit boss
Or shoot some dope instead
You threw away your wallet with your little kids smile

You go run to vegas and buy yourself a drink
You run to vegas the only place that you can think
It doesn't matter what you do all day
It just matters late at night
Go run to Vegas
Where all your friends are strangers
Thank you very much

Hey man I wanna hang out where all this stuff is happening
I wanna be real
I could dig where things get put
I could dig it all
