Carl Perkins' Cadillac - Drive-By Truckers[00:00:00]

Life ain't nothing but a blending up of all the ups and downs[00:00:14]

Dammit Elvis don't you know[00:00:20]

You made your Mama so proud[00:00:23]

Before you ever made that record before there ever was a Sun[00:00:28]

Before you ever lost that Cadillac that Carl Perkins won[00:00:34]

Mr Phillips found old Johnny Cash and he was high[00:00:57]

High before he ever took those pills and he's still too proud to die[00:01:03]

Mr Phillips never said anything behind nobody's back[00:01:12]

Like "Dammit Elvis don't he know he ain't no Johnny Cash"[00:01:17]

If Mr Phillips was the only man that Jerry Lee still would call sir[00:01:25]

Then I guess Mr Phillips did all of Y'all about as good as you deserve[00:01:32]

He did just what he said he was gonna do[00:01:40]

And the money came in sacks[00:01:43]

New contracts and Carl Perkins' Cadillac[00:01:46]

I got friends in Nashville or at least they're folks I know[00:02:06]

Nashville is where you go to see if what they said is so[00:02:12]

Carl drove his brand new Cadillac to Nashville and he went downtown[00:02:20]

This time they promised him a Grammy[00:02:26]

He turned his Cadillac around[00:02:29]

Mr Phillips never blew enough hot air to need a little gold plated paperweight[00:02:33]

He promised him a Cadillac and put the wind in Carl's face[00:02:41]

He did just what he said he was gonna do[00:02:49]

And the money came in sacks[00:02:52]

New contracts and Carl Perkins' Cadillac[00:02:55]

Dammit Elvis I swear son I think it's time you came around[00:03:44]

Making money you can't spend ain't what being dead's about[00:03:49]

You gave me all but one good reason[00:03:58]

Not to do all the things you did[00:03:59]

Now Cadillacs are fiberglass if you were me you'd call it quits[00:04:04]

If Mr Phillips was the only man that Jerry Lee still would call sir[00:04:11]

Then I guess Mr Phillips did all of Y'all about as good as you deserve[00:04:19]

He did just what he said he was gonna do[00:04:27]

And the money came in sacks[00:04:30]

New contracts and Carl Perkins' Cadillac[00:04:33]
