Lightnin’s Cadillac
by Dana Hubbard 
Genre: Folk/Acoustic
Lyrics
Dark night in Texas
Hoodoos on the prowl
Blues player’s ghosts walkin’ the back roads
I can hear the Wolf howl
Broke down on the black top
Far from any town
It’s the blackest night I’ve ever seen in Texas
Can’t even see my feet walkin’ on the ground
Right now I visualize myself to be
Any some-other where but where I’m at
Picture me in the bright lights and the big city
Drivin’ Lightnin’s Cadillac
Up ahead two red tail-lights
Slowin’ down for me
Texas plates on a long black Lincoln
Devil’s in the driver’s seat
He said come on, climb in, I’ll help ya
Get to where ever you are bound
He said, I’ve helped all of the great ones
From Mr. Robert Johnson on down
Muddy, Big Mama, Jimi and Janis,
Stevie, Little Walter, John Lee
He said many had come his way
They all gave up their souls to him
And he taught them all how to play
He said, come on, hop in and take the ride.
He said, he’d help me too.
I said, well, that’s alright, there’s
some-other-where I’m goin’, and
I’ll just keep walkin’ if it’s all the same to you
Right now I visualize myself to be
Any-some-other where but where I’m at
Picture me in the bright lights and the big city
Drivin’ Lightnin’s Cadillac
Right now I visualize myself in Austin
Uptown at Antone’s bar
Watchin’ Buddy Guy up there on the stage
Sweat bullets on a polka dot guitar
Right now I visualize myself to be
Any-some-other where but where I’m at
Picture me in the bright lights and the big city
Drivin’ Lightnin’s Cadillac
