    Lovesick... genetic predisposition... passionate exertion, or symptom of something more serious? All I know for sure is I sleep beside a human furnace... but this one ain't about her, it's about my first ex-wife. Chunky blues with a rootsy feel.

    Story Behind the Song
    She told me I sweat-sleep all the time, and being Jewish, she thinks it's probably cancer. In stark contrast, I thought it was a great idea for a tune.

    Lyrics
    Night Sweats

    I played my guitar.... She played hard to get
    If I knew what I know now I'd've never placed that bet
    I shoulda known better... all I won was regret
    Twenty five years later I still ain't paid the debt

    That's the price of admission
    What you see ain't what you get
    But there's no way that I'd have missed 'em
    All she gave me was the Night Sweats

    I twisted and turned... like a fish in a net
    She played me for sure, from the second that we met
    The day that she left, all she left me was the bed
    And the scent of love goin' round and round my head

    Lord I tried to find out... was it something I said?
    All I had was questions, and a salty soakin' bed
    She left without a word, she left me hangin' by a thread
    Only lonely memories, dreams and wakin' up in a cold sweat
