Story Behind the Song
While driving in East Baltimore during the Christmas Holiday, I always see one or two houses that are w a y overdone with lights and decorations. This scene evokes images of Vegas in my mind. I took this idea and thought "what could be more affected then a Christmas song about Vegas sung by a sleazy lounge singer?" Viola! Christmas in Vegas!
Lyrics
Christmas in Vegas,
Keno and Holly,
Man I feel lucky, gonna let it ride.
Santa and Rudolph,
bought me a shooter (love you, babe!)
I am so happy, it's a natural high.
'Cause, everyday's Christmas,
When you're winning in Vegas,
and Christmas in Vegas is a wonderful time.
Come on Dancer,
Come on Prancer,
Come on 7, come 11,
There is joy in the world,
it's like being in heaven,
It's Christmas in Vegas,
Have a Merry Christmas time.
Christmas in Vegas,
Lotto and Holly,
Man I feel lucky, gonna let it ride.
Granny and Bertha,
bought me a sweater (love you, babe!)
Man I'm so happy, it's a natural high.
'Cause, everyday's Christmas,
When you're winning in Vegas,
and Christmas in Vegas is a wonderful time.
Come on Dancer,
Come on Prancer,
Come on 7, come 11,
There is joy in the world,
it's like being in heaven,
It's Christmas in Vegas,
Have a Merry Christmas time.
