Back in the day, my daddy was dope
Had a old school Caddy, he called it the boat
Let's go for a float down memory lane
The first time I rolled in it, I was never the same
[Eso]
My daddy pulled up, he was slow as a snail
In a sky blue Caddy daddy called the whale
No roof and the rims are golden
He said, "son, keep both eyes open"
[Bliss]
Two kids in their Caddys, the time was peachy
Rolling slow and life was breezy
The shit was easy but low and behold
You never know where you'll go on that road
[Eso]
As you grow up, life rearrangеs
You hit speed bumps and the scenery changеs
And temptation's got his thumb in the wind
So you pick him up like, "brother, get in"
[Bliss]
The years fly by, I feel the danger
I look around now, the car's filled with strangers
And I'm high as hell, I can't see the ground
The rain's pouring down
And I'm speeding now
There's fire from the tires that are making trails
Then I burst straight through the gates of hell
[Bliss & Eso]
Daddy's home, bitch yeah, I ain't leaving
We 'bout to get it lit this evening
Best believe that I'm with my heathens
Hot and heaving and it's full of demons
I want it all, so watch the monster
Take everything the devil's got to offer
And the merry go round never gon' stop
I want the whole damn cake and the cherry on top
Let the stereo rock, bitch, I made this shit
On top of the world, I've got a taste for it
Till the taste of it felt out of place
And that fine wine turned to sour grapes
And the food that was served started rottin' away
Then I looked in the mirror, I'd forgotten my face
Then I looked at my dog like dammit Toto
I don't think we in Kansas no more
No sir, I won't bow
Tell hotel hell, I want out
Call 911, it's an emergency
But you know they ain't coming and it's all on me
So I drained the tank of all of the crap
And pumped nothing but goodness back in my 'Lac
The windshield was all singed and black
So I got cleared headed and it fixed the cracks
And I duct-taped the mirrors back on
That's when I started hearing that song
The one that made me fall in love with it all
Before I was in the clutch of his claw
Back when life was simple and happy
The reason why I even got in this Caddy
I still see him trying to chase my tail
So it's pedal to the metal out the gates of hell
Woo, I'm free at last, huh?
Back onto greener pastures
Baby, put the drop top down
You crazy, let the hot box out
I'm never going back to that hellhole, G
The free breeze never smelt so sweet
This is my life and I'm flipping the bird
To all the bad apples I done kicked to the curb
But now I'm home free on cruise control
Sunset sky all blue and gold
And it's beautiful like heaven on earth
This new life fits me like feathers on birds so
Let ya heart be the part that steers you
And always keep the devil in the rear view
Let the heart be the part that steers you
And always keep the devil in the rear view
[Pre Chorus]
Ooh, oh lord, I'm free
Got my blues all up in the rear view blowing in the breeze
I said, ooh, oh lord, I'm free
Got the devil on my tail
But he'll never catch me
No, he'll never catch me
No, he'll never catch me
No, he'll never catch me
No, he'll never catch me
[Chorus]
Oh lord, I'm free
Oh lord, I'm free
Farewell to the devil
Cadillac outta hell
Oh lord, I'm free
Oh lord, I'm free
Farewell to the devil
Cadillac outta hell
[Bridge]
Let me tell you, when I was riding in my Cadillac
I looked up in the rear view mirror
And I saw that devil’s red claw reaching out at me
Well let me tell you, he ain't never gon' get me
The only thing he gon' get is dust in his eye and smoke from my tail pipe, you dig?
Devil be gone!
[Chorus]
Oh lord I'm free
Oh lord, I'm free
Farewell to the devil
Cadillac outta hell
Oh lord, I'm free
Oh lord, I'm free
Farewell to the devil
Cadillac outta hell
