Haggard, Merle - Losin' In Las Vegas Lyrics
I'm losin' in Las Vegas
The only thing I'm losin' is you
My dreams of winnin' all your love
Just don't stand a chance of comin' true
But there ain't nobody got me down but you
I thought I'd finally won a hand
Then everything I planned fell on through
We shied away from the lights
Spent some warm and tender nights in this desert town
We made some friends here
And I thought you would want to settle down
But you said you had to leave
Now I'm standin' here holdin' back the tears
As you haul out of sight
Losin' in Las Vegas
The only thing I'm losin' is you
My dreams of winnin' all your love
Just don't stand a chance of comin' true
I'm living in this glitter town
But there ain't nobody got me down but you
I thought I'd finally won a hand
Then everything I planned fell on through
Oh, but you said you had to leave
You really felt the need for a change in your life
Now I'm standin' here holdin' back the tears
As you haul out of sight
Oh, I'm losin' in Las Vegas
But the only thing I'm losing is you

I wrote this song in 1986. My wife and our 2 kids were on our way to Merle's house from Las Vegas, NV. We left as the sun was setting, I asked her to write these words down as I was driving. I had the melody in my head so when I finally got to a guitar I sang it and I had it. a few months later I recorded it and gave it to Merle's best friend and bus driver DEAN HOLLOWAY> I gave it to him on a cassette tape and asked him to listen to it if he had a chance while riding down the road. I got a call from Dean about a week later, he had played it for Merle! Merle liked and wanted to record it ! I was shocked, I signed a one song contact with Merle's publishing company, he released it 3 years after that fateful day I gave it to Dean. It still blows my mind every time I hear it.
