When I was seventeen,
found out just what it means
If you can get it free,
it just ainât worth a damn
When I heard the preacher say,
donât throw your life away
I got that message, and I wrote it on the wall
I donât want anybody tellinâ me lies,
no, I donât want your diamond ring
âCause you ainât got my size
I want money, money, thatâs what I need,
I got Cadillac dreams, please mister donâtcha take it from me
Give me money, money, more than I need, I got Cadillac dreamswaitinâ on me
Cadillac dreams, Cadillac dreams
When I had the young boy blues,
I paid some young boy dues
I learned the hard way,
thereâs a heartbreak every day
Stone cold reality came crashing down on me
Well life was hard on me, but I still donât give a damn
When I was seventeen I was an angry young man
But I wonât let just anybody tell me who I am
I just want money, money, thatâs all I need
I got Cadillac dreams, hey mister donâtcha take it from me
Give me money, money, more than I need, these Cadillac dreams arewaitinâ on me
Didnât have the time of day,
till this dream was born
You canât take that away,
you canât take that away from me
When I was seventeen,
there was this beauty queen
Checked in a one room suite, the back seat of my car
When you want all the best things money can buy
You gotta reach down inside of you, to reach up to the sky
Yeah, I want money, money, thatâs all I need
I got Cadillac dreams, hey mister you canât take that from me
I want money, money, more than I need, I got Cadillac dreamswaitinâ on me
Money, money, thatâs what I need
Weâre drivinâ in my Chevy with my Cadillac dreams
Someday, one day, just you and me
Weâll ride inside these Cadillac dreams
Cadillac dreams, hey, hey, hey
That's right, hey, hey
It's Cadillac dreams waitin' on me
Hey, hey, hey
