Joe Rockhead - King of Las Vegas lyrics

You knew what you were doing when you did what you did

You used to do the right things but your standards slid

You're gonna pay the price

There's no going back to the way it was

Because a person's gotta pay for what a person does

You're gonna pay the price

It didn't have to happen that way

But it did cause baby you were taken chances

It didn't have to happen that way

But it did and now you're gonna suffer the circumstances

You shoulda learned to live by the golden rule

Because that karma thing can be awful cruel

You're gonna pay the price

Lost your soul gave in to your greed

When you turn your wants into what you need

You're gonna pay the price

It didn't have to happen that way

But it did cause baby you were taken chances

It didn't have to happen that way

But it did and now you're gonna suffer the circumstances

But if I was the king of Las Vegas

I'd wear the nugget ring

Yeah if I was the king of Las Vegas

It wouldn't mean a thing to me

But I'm not

Yeah one of these days when the tables turn

Yeah your gonna find out that when the truth is learned

You're gonna pay the price

Where you gonna run when it all falls through

I said where you gonna turn when they turn on you

You're gonna pay the price

It didn't have to happen that way

But it did cause baby you were taken chances

It didn't have to happen that way

But it did and now you're gonna suffer the circumstances

But if I was the king of Las Vegas

I'd wear the nugget ring

Yeah if I was the king of Las Vegas

It wouldn't mean a thing to me

But I'm not
