Chorus.
3. I’ll steal you away, I will steal you for good.
I’ll never have to share you; we’ll live the way we should.
It won’t be too much longer until I set you free.
Then I’ll never let you go, I’ll keep you close to me.
Chorus.
Repeat Chorus.
My Red Cadillac
1. One Saturday a while ago, I went out for the night.
The music, it was playing loud, everything seemed right.
You smiled my way across the room and moved up really near.
We talked and laughed and then you said, “Hey, let’s get out of here.”
2. We walked outside and found my car. I sped into the street.
The night was really perfect, till I saw you weren’t too pleased.
“What’s wrong?” I asked, slowing down, before we got too far.
You said, “Just wondering if you ever thought ’bout getting a new car?”
Chorus:
She gets gallons to the mile, not the other way round,
And the tailpipe, it really makes a pretty nasty sound,
The heater hardly works at all and forget about the air.
Duct tape’s been involved in most of her repairs.
But she’s big and fast and solid and I know I can depend
On her to always be there … unlike a lot of men.
She’s my red Cadillac … my red Cadillac.
She gets me where I’m going, and she always gets me back.
I love her like a sister, she’s my red Cadillac.
3. This Caddie’s got a history that goes back lots of years.
My daddy gave her to me as soon as I could steer.
She’s the one who’s moved me to a half a dozen states
And come with me to weddings and funerals and dates.
4. She hasn’t got a GPS, the windshield’s none too clear.
There’s no pine tree freshener hanging from the mirror.
I don’t reserve my Sundays to polish, wax and clean.
She’s a wash and wear gal—an awful lot like me.
Chorus.
5. This Caddie is America, made for fast and far,
I feel a patriotic spirit when I’m driving in this car.
We’ve been from north to south, from sea to shining sea.
She’s part of that tradition that made this country free.
6. That Saturday a while go, if you’re wondering how it went,
I pulled up to the curb, turned to that boy and said,
“So long, friend, I think you better hitch a ride on back.
There’s no better judge of men than this here Cadillac.”
Chorus.
Fire and Flame
1. I’m drawn to you, like a moth to flame.
Once we met, I was never the same.
To reach that light, moths fly for miles,
That’s what I’d do, just to see your smile.
Chorus:
Love is fire, love is flame
It warms your heart, it lights the way.
It burns forever just like the sun.
It welds two souls and makes them one.
Love is fire, love is flame.
2. I know some boys as smooth as ice,
