Anyone have these?  I'll take a stab at it, but just wanted to check first.

Wish someone would post them.  Thanks.

               SNOW IN VEGAS

Lying here with you on top of me.

Nowhere on this earth that I’d rather be.

Just when I was thinkin’ we’d come about as far

As this old road could take us,

That ________ of life says, hey, here ya’ are.

Let it fall like snow in Vegas.

And we’ll hang that sign up on the door.

So the hotel maid don’t wake us.

Now pigs can fly and I’ll command these breakers.

Here now baby we have been so long.

I miss you like a river that’s deep and strong.

Just when I was thinkin’ we’d come about as far

As this old road could take us,

Time to pull it over, baby, yeah, just stop the car

‘Til it falls like snow in Vegas.

And we’ll leave that sign up on the door

So the hotel maid don’t wake us.

Now pigs can fly and I’ll command these breakers.

And anything you want, yeah.

Anything at all.

Any little thing you needed, well, all you do is call.

Got my money where my mouth is.

The sugar’s in the cane.

If I won a million dollars

I’d blow it on champagne.

A million bucks champagne, yeah,

It wouldn’t touch the sides.

No one’s gonna put a foot wrong,

It’s one of those nights, yeah.

And just when I was thinking’ we’d come about as far

As this old road could take us,

Time to pull it over, baby, yeah, just stop the car

‘Til it falls like snow in Vegas.

We’re vain and we’re greedy,

We’re selfish and we’re needy,

But that’s just the way god made us.

Now pigs can fly and I’ll command these breakers.

I don't know what the deal is with the formatting, but I can't get it to work and look right.  Sorry.  There is definitely a bit that I'm missing, and I'm sure I don't have everything right, just thought this would be a start :) 

Huckster is what I heard, too, but wasn't sure.  After looking up the definition, I think it's probably right:

noun
1. a retailer of small articles, especially a peddler of fruits and vegetables; hawker.
2. a person who employs showy methods to effect a sale, win votes, etc.: the crass methods of political hucksters.
3. a cheaply mercenary person.
4. Informal .
a. a persuasive and aggressive salesperson.
b. a person who works in the advertising industry, especially one who prepares aggressive advertising for radio and television. 

Thanks for being the brave one, Vicki!  I'm glad that I didn't have to put my translation up, as it seems I was a little too creative in some areas!
