Cadillac Ranch Lyrics

Cadillac Ranch lyrics

Well the well went dry and the cow did too
And daddy didn’t know what to
do
The banker came by the house one day
He said he’s gonna take the
farm away
Then mama came up with a plan
My brother and me started up a
band
My sister put a sign on the roof
And daddy bought a case of 90
proof

There we called it the Cadillac Ranch
They’re parking cars in
the old bean patch
There’s a bar in the barn and the place stays
packed
Till the cows come home at Cadillac Ranch

Now the only thing
that we raise is cane
You don’t need the sun or rain
Just some neon
lights saying some ice cold beer
Keeps everything green around here
Mama
takes the cash at the door
My brother and me keep them out on the
floor
My sister sets them up at the bar
And daddy kicks back with a big
cigar

There we called it the Cadillac Ranch
They’re parking cars in
the old bean patch
There’s a bar in the barn and the place stays
packed
Till the cows come home at Cadillac Ranch

Well we gave all the
cows away
Now the only horns around here today
Are the ones up on the
grill
Of a genuine ’59 Coupe Deville

There we called it the
Cadillac Ranch
They’re parking cars in the old bean patch
There’s a
bar in the barn and the place stays packed
Till the cows come home at
Cadillac Ranch

There we called it the Cadillac Ranch
They’re
parking cars in the old bean patch
There’s a bar in the barn and the place
stays packed
Till the cows come home at Cadillac Ranch
