[Verse 1]
Got no books in my house
Got no time for those
No room in my closets
Closets full of clothes
Garage full of wheels, babe
Boathouse full of boat
The lifestyle ideal, babe
That's what gets my vote

[Verse 2]
All the villas on the hillsides
Gotta have a view of the sea
Villas of the empire
Way back in history
They have slaves for the galleys and the kitchens
Gardens and the vines
Slaves for the beautiful people
Bring water, food and wine

[Pre-Chorus]
A slave to tie your bib
Another one to carry it
So now I'll take my crib
I dig my chariot, dig my crib
[Chorus]
And my long black Cadillac
Coming forth to carry me home
Dig my crib
And my long black Cadillac
Coming forth to carry me home

[Verse 3]
England calls me vulgar
I'd call myself refined
Goodbye old England
Simon's off to sunny climes
Look who's doing it now, babe
Look who's doing it now
Look who's doing it now, babe
Look who's doing it now

[Verse 4]
Always was an early bird
With something on the side
Better buy this, better buy that
Hey man let that baby ride
Out here every day it's hot
And I'm talking to my men
Working this, working that
Working on my master plan
[Pre-Chorus]
A slave to tie my bib
Another one to carry it
So now I'll take my crib
I dig my chariot, dig my crib

[Chorus]
And my long black Cadillac
Coming forth to carry me home
Dig my crib
And my long black Cadillac
Coming forth to carry me home

[Outro]
Now here's the hot tub, here's the gym
Here's the pool that I swam in
Up the stairs, my footprints led
To the bedroom to my bed
Up the stairs, my footprints led
To where I lay my bosom head
Sleep the long sleep of the dead
I'm an early bird
That's what I said
Early bird, early bird
Ooh, I'm an early bird
