Bruce Springsteen - Cadillac Ranch Lyrics






Well, there she sits buddy justa gleaming in the sun
There to greet a working man when his day is done
I'm gonna pack my pa and I'm gonna pack my aunt
I'm gonna take them down to the Cadillac Ranch

Eldorado fins, whitewalls and skirts
Rides just like a little bit of heaven here on earth
Well buddy when I die throw my body in the back
And drive me to the junkyard in my Cadillac

Cadillac, Cadillac
Long and dark, shiny and black
Open up your engines let 'em roar
Tearing up the highway like a big old dinosaur

James Dean in that Mercury '49
Junior Johnson runnin' thru the woods of Caroline
Even Burt Reynolds in that black Trans-Am
All gonna meet down at the Cadillac Ranch

Cadillac, Cadillac
Long and dark, shiny and black
Open up them engines let 'em roar
Tearing up the highway just a big old dinosaur

Hey, little girlie in the blue jeans so tight
Drivin' alone through the Wisconsin night
You're my last love baby you're my last chance
Don't let 'em take me to the Cadillac Ranch

Cadillac, Cadillac
Long and dark, shiny and black
Pulled up to my house today
Came and took my little girl away

  18. Z.... L....

    I’ve always loved this version, but because I felt like a change I listened to the Nitty Gritty dirt band and realized Springsteen’s will always be better than that crap

  19. F.... S....

    The Boss

  20. W.... ....

    40 years ago,, damn!

  21. j.... ....

    I am probably in the minority but always thought that collared shirt/sport jacket look by Springsteen that he deployed from 1978-81 was always his coolest look. Everyone else in rock at the time was punk, a slob, or over-the-top like Elton (which was fine and even appropriate since it was rock) but that always amused me about Bruce getting dressed up.

  22. J.... W....

    I've been to the Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, TX. Rock on Bruce!!!! #bigfanoftheboss.

  23. M.... A....

    Gary actually moved around way back when

  34. J.... ....

    Imagine if the plane never crashed: it's 1980, and a 43-year-old Buddy Holly joins Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band onstage for "Cadillac Ranch."

  35. L.... w....

    Car, woman, job you hate, town you want to leave. You got a song!

  39. S.... P....

    Rock won’t get any better than this. Electrifying !!!

  40. t.... ....

    ace footage

  41. 1.... ....

    Moves like Jagger, he doesn't have! I love his songs, and have been to several of his concerts, starting with Born in the USA. But I quit supporting him when he decided to support as corrupt a politician as Clinton.

  42. G.... Q....

    Very little that is cooler than this! Just great, with his insane dance and crazy, menacing look on his face, capturing, for a moment the madness of early rockabilly. Great video.

  43. N.... O....

    Boss at the very top

  44. J.... L....

    I turned down going to see him during this tour to go snowmobiling. A big mistake on my part only 17 at the time, finally got to see him on the born in the USA tour. Been hooked ever since.

  45. L.... J....

    Rock and roll! 🎸

  46. R.... C....

    That - ladies and gentlemen - is Rock and Roll!

  47. D.... H....

    I could never tire of this......utterly sublime....

  48. M.... B....

    questo é rock and roll

  49. J.... D....

    AI
    Must be in him
    God

  50. J.... D....

    To good

  51. M.... O....

    Id just returned from deployment ( the first) to the sea off the coast of iran ( big beginning of middle east fiasco-student hostage debacle. Movie called argo gave me closure- Reagan was an asshole). Wouldve been a helluva concert then. Hope he decides to tour and i get to see him once!

  52. A.... F....

    Q tío mes gran.....😚😚😚

  53. T.... M....

    This was Bruce at his best, tearing it up with Rock and Roll. Too bad he decided to try to be a folk singer.

  54. M.... S....

    Holy hanna ,, just saw a young "Silvio"

  55. C.... L....

    4:10 the archetype of rock n roll.

  56. M.... D....

    Genial bruce

  57. O.... ....

    Max Weinberg, Gary Tallent, Roy Bittan, Danny Fredrici, Clarence and Steve VZ. By far the best version of the E Street band.

  58. M.... M....

    Simply the freaking BOSS!

  59. j.... ....

    Back in the days when Bruce was fun and not the humorless curmudgeon we see today

  60. t.... e....

    What a Jam and I own a 1999 400 horse Caddilac STS Seville !! 😀

    t.... e....

    What does it get 8 miles per gallon?

    t.... e....

    @William Gately Maybe 10 miles a gallon and it runs premium gas !! It will fly and it of course rides like a caddy and it has a 8 speaker Bose system that will blow you out the car !! 😀🇺🇸

  61. J.... R....

    This was my first tour seeing the BOSS 😎😎😎

  62. t.... ....

    Wow, 1980.

  63. B.... ....

    Bruce and Stevie (Silvio Dante for Sopranos fans)sure do know how to rock the house...

  64. P.... ....

    What do you call that crab dance he does during the opening riff? That‘s awesome.

  65. E.... B....

    Bruce is cool. It’s a sentiment that bears repeating.

  66. G.... V....

    One year before I had born...

  67. B.... B....

    I won tickets on the radio and saw this tour in Madison Square Garden!!!

    B.... B....

    Seen 71 shows. 44 in 1984/85.

  68. J.... G....

    Springsteen had some class at the end when he played to the seats behind him. I've been in those seats before during his heyday when they were the only seats you could get. When he would turn around occasionally to face us the whole section went nuts!

    J.... G....

    Ele gente fina no e

    J.... G....

    Meus años en juiz gota tiempo gostoso no calcadao e no Cinema central con o prefeitto maíz joven na historia do Brasil.

    J.... G....

    Na historia de juiz de gota o día excelencia Itamar Franco e también presidente do noso Brazil

    J.... G....

    Ele e mesmo New Jersey boy

  69. G.... M....

    And on the eighth day god made the boss.

  70. J.... V....

    The River, el mejor disco de Bruce, en mi opinión. Y este Cadillac Ranch, imposible no ponerte a bailar.

    J.... V....

    Bruce NO DISCO - DISCO STILL SUCKS 40 year after it died.

  71. N.... S....

    Por estos momentos mereció la pena ser fan de por vida del Boss

  72. L.... S....

    Take back what is yours and that is mine

  73. C.... L....

    what about the Saab ranch?

  74. j.... k....

    omg ...he should of at least wiped the blow off his nose

  75. B.... S....

    a greatsong played as loud as possible

  76. j.... d....

    I wanna dance and break shit...Get wild as fuck!!! Lololol

  77. s.... j....

    The Darkness and the River tours were the best shows by far. Once they started playing stadiums it became too big. Even Danny Federici said this in a book i read.

  78. m.... ....

    What' mussing in today' music: Realness and- FUN!!!

  79. j.... ....

    The greatest live performer of all time as far as I am concerned.

    j.... ....

    There is no doubt and this video shows why!!!

    j.... ....

    no doubt, I've seen him 80 times. by far the best Ive ever seen. And I've seen Led Zeppelin, The Who, the stones, Clapton, McCartney etc etc

  80. Z.... M....

    From the first note of this song I cried. My dad and I listened to song before every football and lacrosse practice for about 5 years of my life. This exact live version and everything. This will always be apart of our relationship and I have Bruce to thank for that.

  81. l.... ....

    Now THAT'S kicking ass...Brilliant,,pedal to the metal...

  82. V.... R....

    i came here for the bruce dance moves! was not dissapointed!

  83. A.... ....

    Thank you Boss for every single song, every single word you've shared with us.

  84. M.... B....

    man, those were great times

  85. T.... D....

    That was great.
    Thank you for sharing.
    I'd never seen that before, and I have just been reminded why I was such a fan.
    Imagine what it felt like to be in the audience.

  86. V.... E....

    Esto es una banda de rock ........ grande Springsteen ☮️

  87. J.... E....

    Leaving the show after my first Springsteen show, I was exhausted and blown away by what I had just witnessed, and that was ROCK N ROLL IN ITS PUREST FORM... No fancy stage costumes or light shows just great performances of fantastic songs.... ON THE 8TH DAY, GOD CREATED BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN AND THE E STREET BAND AND DAMN!!!! IT WAS GOOD

  88. S.... H....

    3 times , rock and roll !!!!

  89. L.... K....

    Thank you Bruce💕🤗😄🎶💃🥰Great video!!!🎶💝

  90. A.... M....

    💙🍀🌸🍀💐💙

  91. C.... P....

    Two nights in a row in Dallas at the Cotton Bowl, circa '85. Second night I got in on an unused ticket from the previous night. E Street Band = The Greatest Show On Earth...

    C.... P....

    I was there the second night. It was the greatest show I have ever seen. He made that giant stadium seem intimate. There are a few bands I like better but not live. I used to usher at concerts and then worked for a music distributor where I got free tickets to almost every show I wanted to see. Not bragging. Just saying I've seen lots of shows in my life and that was the best.

  92. s.... ....

    I saw them on this tour at The Spectrum in Philly a month after this concert. Sat second row from the top, still had a great time.

    s.... ....

    straycatttt I was at the Spectrum concert as well. Near the end, 2 guys jumped up in the stage to get near Bruce, and I remember thinking at the time that if they meant to harm Bruce, they could have done so right there. After the concert, driving back home to Jersey, the radio is reporting the shocking news of the shoring of John Lennon. From sheer bliss to pure shock.

    s.... ....

    S Romeri, Bruce may have played four or five Spectrum shows that week. I may have been at the one the night before the Lennon assassination. The night after your concert, Bruce paid tribute to Lennon by opening with “Twist and Shout.”

    s.... ....

    straycatttt Good Memory! I remember Bruce doing Santa Claus is Coming To Town and Clarence was in the Santa suit. The best Bruce concerts I ever saw were in that time frame....late 70's & early 80's

  93. f.... ....

    I love how he does the count in even though he's the one starting the riff

    f.... ....

    Lol and even though the drums are already keeping time

    f.... ....

    @Owen Rees The count in and keeping time are separate things.

  94. B.... B....

    Miami Steve/Little Steven makes it for me!!!

    B.... B....

    Just look the " Lilyhammer" film !!! xD

  95. v.... w....

    Hey Bruce,are you still kissing O"BUM"A' up his "googie hole"?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  96. w.... ....

    A finely tuned machine.

  97. R.... B....

    The Boss of Bosses

  98. i.... a....

    Tearin up the highway like a big ol dinosaur

  99. i.... a....
