It's a woman like that
She's gonna break your back
She has kind of a knack
To give a heart attack
Listen close
To what I say
I've been there before you
I'd like to help you find a way
In your quiet despair

She has found a better driver
Cadillac, Cadillac
Takes me back to when I was younger
Cadillac won't be back
She has found a better driver
Cadillac, Cadillac
Takes me back to when I was younger
Cadillac won't be back
She has found a
