Cold Hard Cash

Graziano Romani


Well, I stopped for the night in a neon-lit gamblin' town 
Lookin' for a bed, just wanna lay myself down 
Well, I checked my bags and I went for a walk down the block 
Then from out of the lights 
Rolled a triple snake-eyes 
And they don't wanna let me go... 

Gotta get my hands on cold hard cash 
I'm up to my neck in debts, and so 
I gotta find some cold hard cash 
I'm down on my luck tonight - cold hard cash! 

Now the one-armed bandit held me down with a wrestling hold 
While Keno and Blackjack robbed my silver and gold 
And the roulette lady, she blew me a long last kiss 
From out of the lights 
Rolled a triple snake-eyes 
And they ain't gonna let me go... 

Gotta get my hands on cold hard cash 
'Cause I'm up to my neck in debts, so 
I've got to find some cold, hard cash 
I'm down on my luck tonight - - cold hard cash!
