Cadillac ranch

Cadillac ranch Lyrics

Well the well went dry
and the cow did too
daddy didn't know
what to do
the banker came by
the house one day
said he's gonna take
the farm away
then mama came up
with a plan
brother and me
started up a band
sister put a sign on the roof
and daddy bought
a case of 90 proof

Chorus:
Now we call it
the Cadillac Ranch
they're parking cars
in the old beat patch
there's a bar in the barn
and the place stays packed
'till the cows come home
at Cadillac Ranch

Now the only thing
the we raise is cane
we don't need
the sun or rain
just a neon sign
and some ice cold beer
keeps everything in real
around here
mama takes the cash
at the door
brother and me
keep 'em out on the floor
sister sets 'em up
at the bar
and daddy kicks back
with a big cigar

Chorus

Well we gave
all the cows away
and now the only
holes around here today
are the ones up on the grill
of a genuine '59 coupe deville

Chorus
Repeat
