about

Recorded at Pine Hollow in Eau Claire, WI.

lyrics

Behind broadway he pulled up
I'm sitting in a trailer selling some grub
Cadillac Jack wants a midnight snack
Quick before those tires go flat
Came from the west, came then he left

With a rusty tan and sun-bleached hair
From the California sun out there
Bit more icy in North Dakota
Nothing can stop that Cadillac motor
Came from the west, came then he left

Left his car in the parking lot
Mighta got lost and mighta got shot
Went someplace and never came back
And that's all we know of Cadillac Jack

He struck up a conversation
Said I got no relations
Just a set of wheels and an appetite
Ain't looking to run, ain't looking for a fight
Came from the west, came then he left

Oh no! There's that motor
Oh no! Minnesota
Ain't got nothing on him now boys
He's seen the world through his Cadillac eyes
Came from the west, came then he left

Left his car in the parking lot
Mighta got lost and mighta got shot
Went someplace and never came back
And that's all we know of Cadillac Jack

I know something's missing
Icy roads still glisten
I know something's missing
Not all ears will listen
I know something's missing
Fill that void with distance
I know something's missing
Ears don't always listen

Left his car in the parking lot
Mighta got lost and mighta got shot
Went someplace and never came back
And that's all we know of Cadillac Jack
