Lyrics and translation
Original
Now you may think I'm foolish for the foolish things I do. You may wonder how
I can love you when you get on my nerves like you do.
Well baby, you know you love me, ain't no secret about that.
Well, come on over here and hug me, and baby, I'll spill the facts.
Honey, it ain't your money, 'cause I got plenty of that.
I love you for your pink Cadillac, crushed velvet seats, low in the back, oozin' down the street, wavin' to the girls, feelin' out of sight, spendin' all my money on a Saturday night. Honey, I just wonder what it feels like in the back of your pink
Cadillac.
Now way back in the Bible, temptations always come along.
Always somebody temptin' you from doin' somethin' right into doin' somethin' you know's wrong.
They tempt you with silver, they tempt you with gold.
They tempt you with the pleasures that the flesh does hold.
They say Eve tempted Adam with an apple, and the way the poor fool went for that.
Can you imagine what would have happened if she'd just stepped back and showed him her pink
Cadillac, crushed velvet seats, sittin' low in the back, oozin' down the street, wavin' to the girls, feelin' out of sight, spendin' all my money on a Saturday night.
Now honey, I just wonder what you do there in the back of your pink Cadillac, pink
Cadillac.
Now some folks say that it's too big, uses too much gas.
Some say that it's too old and it goes too fast.
But honey, my love is bigger than a Honda, it's bigger than some Subaru.
And that car has got something, and there ain't nothing else will do.
Anyway, we don't have to drive it.
We can just park it out in back, then have a party in your pink Cadillac, pink
Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink
Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink
Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink
Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink Cadillac, pink
Cadillac
