    Story Behind the Song
    Sometimes we trade down as we grow up (and older), but it doesn't have to be like that ...

    Lyrics
    KINGS DRIVING CADILLACS

    CHO
    We were kings driving Cadillacs
    Now we ride to work on a bus
    Yeah we were kings driving Cadillacs
    Now they're out the back full of rust.
    Took a wrong turn, don't know when or where
    Now the fires don't burn
    like we no longer care
    Yeah we were kings driving Cadillacs
    So mister let me of this bus.

    Remember we were kids racing 'round the block
    and all the things we did
    whenever no-one looked
    and the whole wide world
    just lay there at our feet
    Those days are dead and gone,
    I'm grown up and mature
    But the perfume lingers on
    amid the smell of this manure
    And more and more each day
    there's somewhere else I'd rather be.

    The day I got my license
    I smashed my dad's car
    finished up at school
    and picked up my guitar
    gigin' every night
    and savin' every dollar I earned
    until I had enough
    to buy the car of my dreams
    man it was so tough
    I kept it shiny and clean
    and I'd drive it every day
    feelin' like the king of the world.

    BRI
    Every now and then I sit behind the wheel
    of my old Cadillac
    Someday soon my friend
    I'll strike that perfect deal
    and then I'm comin' back!
