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

Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat
Run down in the back of my neck
To lose means someone, to death that means double
And I got me a heavy belt

Cold, cold sweat

They say chances on the outside
Are looking very salami
I've been so lucky on the inside
I feel I'm gonna live

Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat
Run down in the back of my neck
Take a little money, there's nothing left to lose
And I got me a heavy belt

Cold, cold sweat

I've got a whole lot of twages
I haven't seen that one in Egypt
I might spend it in stages
And move out to Las Vegas
Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat
Run down in the back of my neck
To lose means someone, to death that means double
And I got me a heavy belt

Cold, cold
Cold, cold sweat

I put my money in the suitcase
They say chances on the outside
I got a whole on the twages

Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat
Stone cold crazy
Place another bet
