blitzen trapper - cadillac road lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1:]
when the mill shut down, it tore down the town
my wife looked for the city, yeah but i stuck around
a cold wind blows down an old dirt road where the time [blows]
but [it] man god only knows

i spent ten years mournin’ for a life that was gone
i spent five more wanderin’ like a no-good bum
and now i’m back in the valley gotta make a new start
gotta change with the times, but i don’t have a heart, now

now every night when the work bell rings
i gun my chevy to the interstate and see what it brings
but i always end up out here all alone
where it all began out on cadillac road

i was lucky in love, but my love ran cold
doin’ late nights drinkin’ just to carry that load
when the word come down from a foreman at dawn
“we got two weeks boys and then we all be gone.”

when i got to the house, she was packing the truck
she said, “i’m fresh out o’ reasons so goodbye and good luck.”
as i watched her drive south the wind turned cold
and i just started walking without nowhere to go on cadillac road

[chorus:]
a fire starts in the heart then it grows
‘cause up here, on cadillac road
a wise man once said
“you never know just what you’ve got until it’s gone for good,” yeah

[verse 2:]
i got a teenage boy, he doesn’t know my name
sometime i go and watch him at his football games
but one of these days i’m gonna tell him the truth
’bout who his old man is who i was in my youth

’bout how dreams can die and there’s an old dirt road
where a house used to stand, used to be our home
but there’s a love that’s pure, you know it’s pure as gold
and sometimes i think about it when i’m drivin’ up on that cadillac road

[chorus:]
a fire starts in the heart then it grows
‘cause up here, on cadillac road
a wise man once said
“you never know just what you’ve got until it’s gone for good,” yeah

[outro:]
‘cause up here, on cadillac road
a fire starts in the heart then it grows
up here, on cadillac road
my love is like a wildfire road

’cause up here, on cadillac road
a fire starts in the heart then it grows
up here, on cadillac road
my love is like a wildfire road

‘cause up here, on cadillac road
a fire starts in the heart then it grows
up here, on cadillac road
my love is like a wildfire road
