Name: Cadillac Tan
Duration: P00H02M34S
Description: This tune was inspired by my criminal brother - many in my family - myself included - think he killed our father "just for his home". Criminal mind and a halo I'm told. Lying and trying some hair-brained scam! He really never had a Cadillac (never worked enough for even a beat up one).

about

This tune was inspired by my criminal brother - many in my family - myself included - think he killed our father "just for his home". Criminal mind and a halo I'm told. Lying and trying some hair-brained scam! He really never had a Cadillac (never worked enough for even a beat up one).

lyrics

Here come the man with the Cadillac tan
He's lying and trying some hair brain scam
if you give him 50 dollars he can make you 10--------grand

better walk away when he sticks out his -------------hand

------------

His left arm is dark driver's window gone
livin in his car from dusk till dawn
He'd steal your last penny way bfore noon----------------

better not leave if he's in your------ room

beat up 57 Eldorado 3 tone
to hear him talk about it you would think that it's gold
He'd kill his own daddy, just for his home-----------

criminal mind and a halo I'm ----- told

Bridge
The Boy is lazy, the boy is bold
the boy is crazy, the boy is cold
he'd kill his own daddy even though that he's old-----------

to take away the little world that his daddy ---------owned
