0:17Don't make me come to vegas
0:20Don't make me pull you
0:21Out of his bed
0:26I am vigilant
0:31That it will not be you
0:34On the menu he's serving
0:37Up for his friends
0:42Don't make me come to vegas
0:44Don't make me pull him
0:46Out of your head
0:51Athena will attest
0:55That it could be done
0:58And it has been done
0:59And I think that I am up to it
1:07And the jacaranda tree
1:09She's telling me of
1:12The trouble you're in
1:16Just by the way
1:18She bends
1:22Remember dancing
1:24And wondering
1:25As you were swaying
1:30What kind of woman you'd be
1:35"what will be will be"
1:40Over my dead body
2:02Slip through your hand again and again
2:16My old flame was a jester
2:18And a joker
2:19And as dealer of men
2:25They called him the prince
2:29Prince of black jacks
2:33And of women
2:34And of anything
2:35That's slipped into his hands
2:40"and the ranches and the mustangs"
2:43And the way you said
2:45"you can have all this
2:49Except for me--you see
2:56Lady luck is my mistress
2:58And you'll have to play
2:59Second to her wish"
3:05And the jacaranda tree
3:08Is telling me
3:09It's not over yet
3:14Just by the way she bends
3:20"if you come breezin' through"
3:22You said "i'll know that it's you
3:25By the taste on my lips
3:29Bet on the desert's kiss"
3:34I could slip through your net
3:39"over my dead body"
4:01Slip through your hand again and again
4:20Slip through your hand again and again
4:30Don't make me come to vegas
4:35Don't make me come to vegas
4:39Don't make me come to vegas
Don't make me come to vegas Don't make me pull you Out of his bed I am vigilant That it will not be you On the menu he's serving Up for his friends Don't make me come to vegas Don't make me pull him Out of your head Athena will attest That it could be done And it has been done And I think that I am up to it And the jacaranda tree She's telling me of The trouble you're in Just by the way She bends Remember dancing And wondering As you were swaying What kind of woman you'd be "what will be will be" Over my dead body Slip through your hand again and again My old flame was a jester And a joker And as dealer of men They called him the prince Prince of black jacks And of women And of anything That's slipped into his hands "and the ranches and the mustangs" And the way you said "you can have all this Except for me--you see Lady luck is my mistress And you'll have to play Second to her wish" And the jacaranda tree Is telling me It's not over yet Just by the way she bends "if you come breezin' through" You said "i'll know that it's you By the taste on my lips Bet on the desert's kiss" I could slip through your net "over my dead body" Slip through your hand again and again Slip through your hand again and again Don't make me come to vegas Don't make me come to vegas Don't make me come to vegas
