Sherry Goes To Vegas
Mama wanted a movie star Daddy wanted a PhD All Sherry wanted was a little affection Nobody was listenin'
So she caught a right with a guy in a truck Down by the interstate He said, ‽I'm headed for the city of angels I can drop you anywhere along the wayâ€
The first time she saw them lights Lawd, she could not say a word But he left her standin' on the strip With her suitcase on the curb
And she saw a sign said â€~Please Apply' Always lookin' for a pretty face Aw, folks our little farm girl was a big hit on the Little stage and she's
Livin' a life Totally outrageous Puttin' on the dog And takin' it off in Vegas
I bet you wonder What's gonna happen to her Shh, listen
There's a Gideon bible In the cheap desk beside her bed Sometimes she flips it open But she avoids the words in red
'Cause Sherry can't believe the king of kings Would give a dang about the city of sin Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Why would he care anythin' about Sherry After all she's been?
Livin' a life Totally outrageous Puttin' on the dog And takin' it off in Vegas
Hey y'all Well, last night she could not sleep She was readin' that book again Then she came across that story That woman Mary Magdalene
Sherry cried right out loud Lord, she's as rough as me What will the good Lord do When they throw him a bad seed?
Oh, Sherry, Sherry Love's changed her Mary was
Livin' a life totally outrageous Puttin' on the dog And takin' it off like Vegas
Now someone's puttin' on a cross And shakin' off Vegas
Sherry's on a Greyhound On her way home to El Paso One black Gideon bible And a heart as white as snow
