Vegas

Vegas

I went to Vegas
I bet on red
it came up black
wanna go home
cause funds now lack!

Went back to Vegas
with hopes and dreams;
turned into a nightmare;
   when I played 
those slot machines!

Then I sat down
to play BlackJack
lost my money;
now want it back!

Maybe my luck
will set me free
or this is the last
Vegas will see of me!
