Album: Cadillac In The Swamp, Buy Album: Lyrics: Ah now let me tell y’all something here
Now now this ain’t no lie
Y’all come on over here
And let’s sit by the fire
Way down south
Where the beatles and cottonmouth breed
I seen something down there y’all
That took my breath away
I saw a black Cadillac
Cruising real slow
Way down the swamps
Where man dare go
The windows went down slowly
There set a chauffeur with no head
Well I set there trembling y’all
Never been so damned scared...
(CHORUS)
Whoa oh that Cadillac yeah
Whoa oh down in the swamp
Ah Lord
Thick fog rolled in
I could barely see the lights
And that old ghost Cadillac y’all
Faded into the night
I ran home and told my daddy
Just what I seen
He reached for his knife people
Never saw him look so damned mean
He said look a here boy
It was back in ’52
It was late one night
Your mammy saw it too
(CHORUS)
well your mammy got so scared
She packed up and moved away
And she swore to the Lord
She’d never come back to stay
It was about three days later
I went hunting that night
And I found yo mama dead boy
Tire tracks right across her back
So my daddy grabbed his shotgun
He said boy show me them tracks
Now whatever you hear
Just don’t look back
(CHORUS)
He went down them swamps
With that old big thick hound
About 20 minutes later
That old hound began to sound
Five shots rung out
I was froze in my tracks
And I thought about what daddy said y’all
So I didn’t look back
That old hound kept running
With his tongue hung to the ground
That old ghost Cadillac ya’ll
No where to be found
(CHORUS)
I said hey daddy
What happened to that old hound?
He said that old Cadillac boy
Done done road him down
That Cadillac killed yo mammy
And it’s going to get me
So you get out of these swamps boy
And set yourself free
That ghost Cadillac
You better hide
That ghost Cadillac ya’ll
Headless chauffeur inside
That ghost Cadillac
Patrolling them swamps
That ghost Cadillac
Blood stains in the trunk
Have mercy
Have mercy
Yeah lord.

A swampy groove runs through the music. The song writing is superb and very humorous at times. Powerhouse harp playing and great musicianship all around. Hypnotizin’ Boogie Blues, that’s what it is. Very enjoyable and bluesy to the core.
