Clint Black - Cadillac Jack Favor lyrics

He's Cadillac Jack Favor and the name rings true

If he's got a ride any stranger would too

The one bad habit that his Ponder would say

Is sure gonna put him through the trials one day

And that's just what happened he took pity on two men

Headin' down to Louisiana, he stopped and let 'em in

And the thanks he'd get for helpin' them

Would make him wish he was bustin' broncs again

He dropped 'em off in Bossier City where they met up with a man

Now that vagabond committee barely even had a plan

It was just a simple robbery turned double homicide

And they got away with murder it'd be someone else's hide

Almost two years come and gone, they never solved that crime

'Til they found one of our vagabonds already doing time

And when that jailbird started singing

they know all the words were wrong

But the sheriff and the D.A. and the judge all sang along

They pinned it on Jack Favor, gave him life without parole

Gave Jack's freedom to the jailbird, payment on the lies he told

And it just so happens that election year

Everybody made out at the polls

Cadillac's no fallen hero and he's never gonna break

When it comes to prison rodeo, there'll be no easy eight

And if you want the definition of a picture perfect frame

It be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name

Cadillac's no fallen hero and he's never gonna break

When it comes to prison rodeo, there'll be no easy eight

And if you want the definition of a picture perfect frame

It be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name

Yeah, it's the wold's most crooked picture

and when it comes to being framed

Cadillac Jack Favor should be in the Hall of Fame
