White Cadillac (Ode to Ronnie Hawkins)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This leg is long as a Georgia pine Rollin' Mississippi levee on my mind today But it's so far away Sedan DeVille, what a ride, brand new Four barrel wide open but you better pull over, boys He's comin' on through Headin' up north, we're leavin' stills behind The kids are wide-eyed, I know everybody wants to ride [Chorus] Big white Cadillac I hope somebody's got my back, boy Wheels burnin' on the rim 'cause we're closin' in We're gonna rock this town again [Verse 2] Red knuckles smashin' on them rockin' 88's Strings breakin', sticks flyin' every which a way Man, ain't that something, the big doghouse thumpin' Camel walk, back flip, mohair, what a touch Who needs the king, thank you, thank you very much Ain't Yonge Street lucky, I know they are in Memphis and Kentucky But Little Rock and Newport, Oklahoma, New York The kids are wide-eyed, I know everybody wants to ride [Chorus] Big white Cadillac I hope somebody's got my back, boy Wheels burnin' on the rim 'cause we're closin' in We're gonna rock this town again [Chorus] Big white Cadillac I hope somebody's got my back, boy Wheels burnin' on the rim 'cause we're closin' in We're gonna rock this town again [Bridge] Oh, my, my, it looks like the fix is in The trap is set, the secret's kept The fire's burnin', the wheels are turnin' We got to go before the smoke starts clearin' [Chorus] Big white Cadillac I hope somebody's got my back, boy Wheels burnin' on the rim 'cause we're closin' in We're gonna rock this town again [Chorus] Big white Cadillac I hope somebody's got my back, boy Wheels burnin' on the rim 'cause we're closin' in Big white Cadillac, big white Cadillac, big white Cadillac
