Cold Sweat

I put my money in a suitcase

And headed for the big race

I feel a chill up my backbone

As I hung up the telephone

Stone-cold sober and stone-cold sweat

Runnin' down the back of my neck

To lose means trouble, to win means double

And I got me a heavy bet

Stone-cold sweat

They say chances on the outside

Are lookin' pretty slim

I feel so lucky on the inside

I feel I'm gonna win

Stone-cold sober and stone-cold sweat

Runnin' down the back of my neck

Take a little money, nothin' left to lose

And I got me a heavy bet

Stone-cold sweat

Stone-cold sweat

I got a whole month's wages

Haven't seen that much in ages

I might spend it on the stages

Maybe move out to Las Vegas

Stone-cold sober and stone-cold sweat

Runnin' down the back of my neck

To lose means trouble, to win means double

And I got me a heavy bet

Stone-cold sweat

I put my money in a suitcase

They say chances on the outside...

I got a whole month's wages

Stone-cold sober and stone-cold sweat

Stone-cold crazy, place another bet

Stone-cold sweat
