[Verse 1]

I put my money in the suitcase

And headed for the big race

I felt a chill on my backbone

As I hung up the telephone

[Pre-Chorus]

Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat

Running down the back of my neck

To lose means trouble, to win pays double

And I got me a heavy bet

[Chorus]

Cold, cold sweat

[Verse 2]

They say chances on the outside

Are looking pretty slim

I feel so lucky on the inside

I feel I'm going to win

[Pre-Chorus]

Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat

Running down the back of my neck

Take a little money, there's nothing left to lose

And I got me a heavy bet

[Chorus]

Cold, cold sweat

[Verse 3]

I've got a whole month's wages

I haven't seen that much in ages

I might spend it in stages

And move out to Las Vegas

[Pre-Chorus]

Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat

Running down the back of my neck

To lose means trouble, to win pays double

And I got me a heavy bet

[Chorus]

Cold, cold sweat

[Outro]

I put my money in the suitcase

They say chances on the outside

I've got a whole month's wages

Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat

Stone cold crazy, raise another bet
