The night was long
The winter hills are black
I'm all alone, sitting in the back
Of a long white Cadillac
The headlights shine
The highway fades to black
I'll take my time, sitting in the back
Of a long white Cadillac
Sometimes he blames it on a woman
While his aching heart bleeds
Sometimes he blames it on the money
Sometimes he blames it all on me
A train whistle cries, lost out its on track
I'll close my eyes
He ain't never coming back
In a long white Cadillac
One time he had all that he wanted
But it just slipped right through his hands
One time he sang away the sorrow
One time he took it like a man
Now the headlights shine
The highway fades to black
His last ride ain't never coming back
That long white Cadillac
That long white Cadillac
