Lyrics
COLD HARD CASH
VERSE 1:
Rollin' into Reno early one day
Feelin' kinda lucky so I started to play
Winnin' big pots on every deal
Havin' my way with the roulette wheel
Lady Luck struck me like a lightnin' flash
Fillin' up my pockets with COLD HARD CASH
Fillin' up my pockets with COLD HARD CASH
VERSE 2:
Saw a hot blonde by the slot machines
Struttin' 'round the floor in tight fittin' jeans
She flashed me that little "come on" smile
And said she loved a man with high-rollin' style
She was a long shot that I just couldn't catch
Emptyin' my pockets of COLD HARD CASH
Emptyin' my pockets of COLD HARD CASH
BRIDGE:
COLD HARD CASH, so hard to come by
COLD HARD CASH, so easy to lose
COLD HARD CASH, yeah I lost it all
And now I'm singin' the blues
VERSE 3:
Rollin' out of Reno later that day
Got no cash, no girl, no reason to stay
As I was cursin' my bad luck
Blondie drove by in a new pick-up truck
She blew me a kiss, Lord I almost crashed
She bought it all with COLD HARD CASH
TAG: I paid for it all with COLD HARD CASH
