Verse 1
I put my money in the suitcase
Headed for the big race
I felt a chill on my backbone
As I hung up telephone
Pre-Chorus
Stone cold sober, stone cold sweat
Running down the back of my neck
Lose means trouble, win pays double
And I got a heavy bet
Chorus
Cold, cold sweat
Verse 2
They say chances on the outside
Are looking very slim
I've been so lucky on the inside
I feel I'm going to win
Pre-Chorus
Stone cold sober, stone cold sweat
Running down the back of my neck
Take a little money, nothing left to lose
And I got a heavy bet
Chorus
Cold, cold sweat
Guitar Solo
Verse 3
I've got a whole month's wages
Haven't seen in ages
I might spend it in stages
And move out to Las Vegas
Pre-Chorus
Stone cold sober, stone cold sweat
Running down the back of my neck
Lose means trouble, win pays double
And I got a heavy bet
Chorus
Cold, cold sweat
Outro
I put my money in the suitcase
They say chances on the outside
I got a whole month's wages
Stone cold sober, stone cold sweat
Stone cold crazy, place another bet
