Cadillac Road

Eric Earley

[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
