E
There she sits buddy just a gleamin’ in the sun,
A E
There to greet a working man when his day is done,
E
I’m gonna pack my pa and I’m gonna pack my aunt,
A B E
I’m gonna take them down to the Cadillac ranch.
Eldorado fins, whitewalls and skirts,
Drives just like a little bit of heaven here on earth,
So when I die buddy throw my body in the back,
Take me to the junkyard in my Cadillac.
Chorus:
Cadillac, Cadillac,
Long and dark, shiny and black,
Open up them engines let em roar,
Tearing up the highway like a big old dinosaur.
James Dean in a Mercury 49,
Junior Johnson running in the woods of caroline,
Even Burt Reynolds in a black trans am
Are gonna meet me down the Cadillac ranch
Chorus
Solo (play intro)
Hey little girlie in the blue jeans so tight
Drivin’ all alone in a Colorado night
You’re my last love baby you’re my last chance
Don’t let them take me down to the Cadillac ranch.
Chorus X2
