Joe Cocker - Sandpaper Cadillac lyrics

Riding along in a sandpaper Cadillac

Somebody's strikin' a match on the back

Brimstone lines marring the body so fair

Brimstone lines marring the body so fair

Slowly, my mind and dream change into woe, now

My car is dead and gone, Lord

And I just can't carry on

Changing, my thoughts become so clear to me

My car wants to be free, I know

And it's calling out to me, yeah

Walking along with a gold-plated *****cat

Somebody's pouring blood on its back

Paint that has pierced all the pores in his hide

Paint that has pierced all the pores in his hide

Slowly, my mind and dream change into woe, now

My cat is all alone, I know it

And it hasn't got a bone

Changing, my thoughts become so clear to me

My cat begins to sleep

And it's sleeping 'round with me

Don't you know I need that thing so bad

My car and my cat are going bad

And I need everything I can, Lady

Aaaaa! Oh, no no, this can't be the same, no

They're gonna meet me once again, yeah

They're gonna meet me once again, Lord
