VERSE 2:

They're gonna put it down 
Right on the strip 
They're gonna put it down 
On the Vegas strip 
They're gonna put it down 
And step outside 
Into the lights 
Right outta that ship 

CHORUS 2:

Saying HI! 
Hi
Hi
Hi

Play this throughout the rest: D# Cm G# Cm A#

I was driving doing nothing on the shores of Great Salt Lake
When they put it on the air I put it in the hammer lane
I soon forgot about myself and I forgot about the brake
I forgot about all laws and I forgot about the rain
They were talking on the 9 and all across the amy band
Across the road they were turning around and headed south with me
It got so crowded on the road I started driving on the sand
My head was feeling scared but my heart was feeling free
The desert turned to mud it seems that everybody heard
Everybody was remembering to forget they had the chills
Then I heard the voices on a broadcast from up on the bird
They were getting interviewed by some Goodman whose name was Bill
I'm almost there to Vegas where they're puttin' on a show
They've come so far I've lived this long at least I must go and say hello
