LYRICS

You may think I'm fooling
For the foolish things I do
You may wonder how come I love you
When you get on my nerves and like you do
Well baby you know you bug me
There ain't no secret 'bout that
Well come on over here and hug me
Baby I'll spill the facts
Well honey it ain't your money
'Cause I got plenty of that

I love you for your Pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back,
Oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey I just wonder what you do there in the back
Of your Pink Cadillac
Pink Cadillac

Well now way back in the Bible
Temptations come along
There's always somebody tempting you
Into doing something they know is wrong
Well they tempt you man with silver
And they tempt you sir with gold
And they tempt you with the pleasures
That flesh does surely hold
They say Eve tempted Adam with an apple
Man I ain't going for that

I know it was his Pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back
Oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey I just wonder what you do there in the back
Of your Pink Cadillac
Pink Cadillac yeah hea

. . . . . .

Now now n-now now some folks say it's too big
And it uses too much gas
Some folks say that it's too old
And that it just goes too fast
But a love is bigger than a Honda (Honda)
It's bigger than a Subaru (that's true)
Hey man there's only one thing
And one car that will do
Anyway we don't have to drive it
Honey, we can park it out in back

And have a party in your Pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back
Oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey I just wonder what you do there in the back
Of your pink Cadillac

You know the one I mean... les cars
Wooh oh wooh oh wooh... Cadillac
In the dark can't do that
When we park in the back
Of your pink... Cadillac
ah ah uh... oh
I like what you do, when you do,
what you do in your Pink...
[fade out]
Pretty, pretty, pretty Pink
Cadillac
In the dark, can't do that
In the back of your Pink Cadillac
