Well I was toolin' down the highway in my beat up '53
Smokin' like a steamship with the police after me
When I passed the business district, just then I saw
A Cadillac Motor sign sayin' "Trade your run down car"
Well I pulled up in the alley, tore my clutch right out the floor
I was half way in the dealer's when the cops flew by the door
I want a Cadillac, mister dealer
Black, tail fin, '59
I want a Cadillac, mister dealer
One that will blast off from the line
And when I hit that open roadway
Man, I really want to fly
Highway boy
Well, I bought that big black Cadillac and I took off down the road
Adjust my rear view mirror, then I spied that police Ford
They was comin' after me, boy, with their red lights all aglow
So I whacked that wheel around and I cut off down the road
That big machine wouldn't make the turn, and the cops they grabbed hold of me
And the last I saw my Cadillac, it was wrapped around a tree
I want a Cadillac mister dealer
I want a Cadillac mister dealer
Yeah, a Cadillac mister dealer
I gotta have a Cadillac mister dealer
I want a Cadillac mister dealer
I want a Cadillac mister dealer
