KISS - Cadillac Dreams lyrics
[KISS - Cadillac Dreams lyrics]
When I was seventeen
Found out just what it means
If you can get it free
It just ain't worth a damn
When I heard the preacher say
"Don't throw your life away"
I got that message
And I wrote it on the wall
I don't want anybody telling me lies, no
I don't want your diamond ring
Because you ain't got my size
I want money, money, that's what I need
I got Cadillac dreams, please, mister
Don'tcha take it from me
Give me money, money, more than I need
I got Cadillac dreams waitin' on me
Cadillac dreams, Cadillac dreams
Yeah, when I had the young boy blues
I paid some young boy dues
I learned the hard way
There's a heartbreak every day
Stone cold reality came crashing down on me
Well, life was hard on me
But I still don't give a damn
When I was seventeen
I was an angry young man
But I won't let just anybody tell me who I am
Just want money, money, that's all I need
I got Cadillac dreams, hey mister
Don'tcha take it from me
Give me money, money, more than I need
These Cadillac dreams are waiting on me
Didn't have the time of day
Until this dream was born
You can't take that away
You can't take that away from me
No no yeah, now dig this
When I was seventeen
There was this beauty queen
Checked in a one room suite
The back seat of my car - ha!
When you want all the best
Things money can buy
You got to reach down inside of you
To reach up to the sky
Yeah, I want money, money, that's all I need
I got Cadillac dreams, hey mister
You can't take that from me
I want money, money, more than I need
I got Cadillac dreams waiting on me
Money (yeah) money, that's what I need
We're driving in my Chevy
With my Cadillac dreams
Someday, one day, just you and me
We'll ride inside these Cadillac dreams
Cadillac dreams hey hey hey
That's right hey! Hey!
These Cadillac dreams are waiting for me
Hey hey hey
Found out just what it means
If you can get it free
It just ain't worth a damn
When I heard the preacher say
"Don't throw your life away"
I got that message
And I wrote it on the wall
I don't want anybody telling me lies, no
I don't want your diamond ring
Because you ain't got my size
I want money, money, that's what I need
I got Cadillac dreams, please, mister
Don'tcha take it from me
Give me money, money, more than I need
I got Cadillac dreams waitin' on me
Cadillac dreams, Cadillac dreams
Yeah, when I had the young boy blues
I paid some young boy dues
I learned the hard way
There's a heartbreak every day
Stone cold reality came crashing down on me
Well, life was hard on me
But I still don't give a damn
When I was seventeen
I was an angry young man
But I won't let just anybody tell me who I am
Just want money, money, that's all I need
I got Cadillac dreams, hey mister
