Lyrics
There she sits buddy just a-gleaming in the sun
There to greet a working man when his day is done
I'm gonna pack my pa and I'm gonna pack my aunt
I'm gonna take them down to the cadillac ranch
El dorado fins, whitewalls and skirts;
Drives just like a little bit of heaven here on earth
When I die, buddy, throw my body in the back
Take me to the junkyard in my cadillac
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 runnin' in the woods of caroline
Even burt reynolds in a black trans am
Are gonna meet me down at the cadillac ranch
Cadillac, cadillac
Long and dark, shiny and black
Open up them engines, let 'em roar
Tearin' up the highway like a big old dinosaur
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
Let 'em take me down to the cadillac ranch
Cadillac, cadillac..
Long and dark, shiny and black;
Open up them engines, let 'em roar;
Tearin' up the highway like a big old dinosaur
