I Want My Fleetwood Back

歌詞

Living down in Memphis back in '75 We were scuffling hard just barely staying alive Money's kind of scarce when you're just an opening act Last thing on my mind was a fleetwood cadillac We were cruising downtown just on a sunday drive I looked out on a car lot and something caught my eye It was baby blue, had a rolls royce grill A continental kit and silver spokes on the wheels I put some money down and I told the man I would be back I knew I had to have that fleetwood cadillac I drove it up to Nashville, I was feeling kinda proud But the billies said it's gaudy, just too loud That's alright, I was willing to take a little flak You do what you must do for a fleetwood cadillac It was just too long wouldn't fit in my garage Uncle Sam was in the distance and it was not a mirage Said he needed money for some previous income tax Oh I had to let it go But now I want my fleetwood back The new cadillacs, it's hard to even tell 'em The colors ain't too cool and they're shaped like a watermelon If they give me one I don't think I would even react One thibg on my mind I want my fleetwood back
