PINK CADILLAC
(S. Masters)
JOHNNY TODD (Modern 1003, 1956)

Red light, green light, here we go
I'm realm' with my baby, spurrin' down the road
Four carburettors and a hydromatic drive
And I turned down Main at a hundred-and-five
Oh-oh-oh-me, take a look at that pink Cadillac
Oh-golly-gee, with the four yellow wheels and a ribbon on the back
I'm a-tellin' you Jack, ooh
I love that pink Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac
Well yesterday mornin' I walked by the lot
I saw the pink Cadillac and it sure looked hot
The salesman sold me that pretty little boat
For no money down and a hundred dollar note
Oh-oh-oh-me, take a look at that pink Cadillac
Oh-golly-gee, with the four yellow wheels and a red one on the back
I'm a-tellin' you Jack, ooh
I love that pink Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac

Well I signed my name on the dotted line
And I shouted to the world that she's really mine
Picked up my sweetie just to take her for a flight
And to show the other cats my blue tail lights
Oh-oh-oh-me, take a look at that pink Cadillac
Oh-golly-gee, with the four yellow wheels and a ribbon on the back
I'm a-tellin' you Jack, ooh
I love that pink Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac
Well I hit the curve at the edge of town
I was doin' about ninety with the flaps all down
The pretty little chick got around my neck
She said, step on it honey, you can make it by heck
Oh-oh-oh-me, take a look at that pink Cadillac
Oh-golly-gee, with the four yellow wheels and a ribbon on the back
I'm a-tellin' you Jack, ooh
I love that pink Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac
Oh well, the engine stopped an' said, I'm sorry son
Name a solitary thing that can't be done
It made me mad as they got my coat
'Cause I still gotta make those hundred dollar notes
Oh-oh-oh-me, take a look at that pink Cadillac
Oh-golly-gee, with the four yellow wheels and a ribbon on the back
I'm a-tellin' you Jack, ooh
I love that pink Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac
Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac-Cadillac
