Charisma and charm and lots of entertainment,
hard to stay at home nights keeping spirits in containment.

When first moving here, knowing no fear,
felt I had to go out every night of the year.

I ran myself rsgged, spent money like crazy,
then at work the next day people thought I was lazy.

I soon settled down and took Vegas in stride,
knowing I had been on a disasterous ride.

But that was year one and since it's been quiet,
to get me onto that strip it nearly takes a riot.

I live here in Vegas just like in Illinois,
working, going to church and loving my boys.

Anywhere is what you make it, but right now to me,
the weather, health and family is what matters, what I see.

My wild oats are all sown, my basket is bare,
I am happy as a lark about life today, haven't got a care!
