Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood

Volbeat Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood Lyrics
1.Intro/End Of The Road


2.Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood

Lyricist:Michael Poulsen

There's a Cadillac out in the dark
There's a guitar gangster lighting a smoke
And he feels the night and he feels the fire

Driving into the city unknown
10 small houses is what he face in the cold
And then feel the night, can you feel the fire?

Guitar gangsters and Cadillac blood
They came from the road and out of the dark
Went into a place even darker
Guitar gangsters and Cadillac blood

Walking into a place called The Bar
People looking like a ghost had arrived
And he feels the eyes, can you feel the eyes?

Guitar gangsters and Cadillac blood
They came from the road and out of the dark
Went into a place even darker
Guitar gangsters and Cadillac blood

Dear ladies, gentlemen, don't be afraid
We are here to ease your pain
Let it all start with a song
I'm sure we'll get along

Guitar gangsters and Cadillac blood
They came from the road and out of the dark
Went into a place even darker
Guitar gangsters and Cadillac blood


3.Back To Prom

Forever and ever, even today and after
I kept our picture forever
Back in the late 50's we went to the prom and kissing
But you went home eith Tom Ripley

Throw the guy a meat bone, put him on a train
That's the way it should end
Living the outskirts, to 40 miles away
Where the lonely road ends

Forever and ever, even today and after
I still belive you can hear me
Believer, deceiver, the qustion lies beneath the
letter I wrote you in late May

Throw the guy a meat bone, put him on a train
That's the way it should end
Living the outskirts, to 40 miles away
Where the lonely road ends
Where the lonely road ends
Where the guitar gansters sings


4.Mary Ann's Place

Here I sit at Mary Ann's place
Oh baby the rain is always pouring when I'm here
Saw the lightning caught your stone
Oh maybe the angels of tomorrow will let me go

Still the crying hurts in your head
Well you're still beneath my feet
Well oh God don't seems to follow
Hear my prayers until tomorrow's settlement

Side by side with Lucy's stone
You two are forever missing colours in my home

Do you think you can forgive
I know that your life has been a burden
A living hell

Still the crying hurts in your brain
Well i'm still beneath your feet
Have you looked into the sky
Well oh God don't seem to mind
Will the fire burn the flower
Or the angels sing tomorrow, when I'm near


5.Hallelujah Goat

One lucky bastard finds its way for picking up a
Brand new fire rose
All the days of wine and pitiful lie, the pitiful rhymes
Were all a long time ago

That's the way it all will end
Die alone, you never will
Hell is here, unleash your tail

Well, the Lord above has never been on my side or
Your side, hallelujah goat
Walking through a fire like a soldier
Kicking the door and kicking the devil's whore

That's the way it all will end
Die alone, you never will
Hell is here, unleash your tail

Heaven, where did you go?
People are searching for love
So easy blaming the horned
Mankind the sinner, forever it burns

Well, the Lord above has never been on my side or
Your side, hallelujah goat
Walking through a fire like a soldier
Kicking the door and kicking the devil's whore

That's the way it all will end
Die alone, you never will
Hell is here, unleash your tail

Heaven, where did you go?
People are searching for love
So easy blaming the horned
Mankind the sinner, forever it burns


6.Maybellene I Hofteholder

Saturday I love you like gold
Not like the Monday, you passed like a ghost
The fire killed you like a motherless child
I saw you at Sunday at Barbara Hotel
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh babe, I'm so sorry and nowhere to go

Could scream like a pig, could bark like a dog
Just to get attention as I'm chasing you down the hall
Oh Maybellene, you've been so lonely
Got the fire burning as I'm smoking you out again

Still all the leaves keep on falling
Until I see you dancing on the table 45 again

See her dancing for the young wolves, oh, oh, oh
Maybellene I Hofteholder, could you be the only one?
Oh, I beg you to come home
Dance forever my only one

Could scream like a pig, could bark like a dog
Just to get attention as I'm chasing you down the hall
Oh Maybellene, you've been so lonely
Got a fire burning as I smoke you out again

See her dancing for the young wolves, oh, oh, oh
Maybellene I Hofteholder

See her dancing for the young wolves, oh, oh, oh
Maybellene I Hofteholder, could you be the only one?
Oh, I beg you to come home
Dance forever my only one

I flicked the switch at Monday night
Oh Maybellene, I'm so sorry that I didn't see it coming
And the sky is filled with prayers
Oh baby, I'm so sorry I was blind


7.We

It's good to be here, long time no see my dear
I took the run out to the road to find a way
But the loneliness broke into tears
I believe I was wrong but baby
now I know your love is not a thing
You throw out in the cold and walked away
I'm so sorry, please say you forgive

Close your eyes baby and lend me your finger
Together we walk out as one
No lonely nights, broken promises or fights will
return anymore

I remember a time I believe was fine
But inside my heart broke down in two
Something inside starts to burn like a fire
And I knew it was you

We're broken and damned
But together we'll find a way
And no longer shall hell awaits
We will seek all the light in the day
Cause forever our love will breathe

Close your eyes baby and lend me your finger
Together we walk out as one
No lonely nights, broken promises or fights will
return anymore

I remember a time I believe was fine
But inside my heart broke down in two
Something inside starts to burn like a fire
And I knew it was you

We're broken and damned
But together we'll find a way
And no longer shall hell awaits
We will seek all the light in the day
Cause forever our love will breathe

We're broken and damned
But together we'll find a way
And no longer shall hell awaits
We will seek all the light in the day
Cause forever our love will breathe


8.Still Counting

Counting all the assholes in the room
Well I'm definitely not alone, well I'm not alone
You're a lier, you're a cheater, you're fool
Well that's just like me yoohoo and I know you too
Mr. Perfect don't exist my little friend
And I tell you it again, and I do it again
Counting all the assholes in the room, Well I'm
definitely not alone, well I'm not alone

Look deep into yourself before you blame all others
for betrayal, for betrayal
I promise, so easy to say, and easy you failed,
and you do it again

Well the music seems to cover
And all the liquid do the colours
Well I turn my back and
go for all the better things in order

Well maybe you think your lie is safe
But I read you like a letter, yeah like a letter
Your charm do not evens the pain
it feeds me with rage, and you do it again

Well the music seems to cover
And all the liquid do the colours
Well I turn my back and
go for all the better things in order

Well the music seems to cover
And all the liquid do the colours
Well I turn my back and
go for all the better things in order

And a gangster keeps on telling
That he got a song that matters
So I flip a coin towards him
Thank you very much for listening


9.Light A Way

Down by the lake of Mississippi
A boy was born poor and abandoned
And as he walk you could hear him yearning
For a home and he prays

And by the fields he sang for rising
All for his faith and memorizing
All of the songs his mother learned
from the lord himself

Heaven light a way for a fallen
Let me ease the pain from my mother
But he feels the deception in his head

Another day was born and rising
and on the stool the boy was trying
To earn a coin for his mother, and hoping
That freedom will lead her away

Mr. Cadillac Blood: Dear little friend
I've heard your story
Please take my hand and I'll promise
We'll find a way and we'll be fighting
For your mother, and her wings

Heaven light a way for a fallen
Let me ease the pain from my mother
But he feels the deception in his head

Heaven light a way for another
Let me ease the pain for a fallen
We are on our way so much stronger
Heaven light the way for another
And he feels no deception in his head


10.Wild Rover Of Hell

Driving the highway with nothing to do
Future fading away
The stereo is pumping Metallica tunes
Ride the lightning, oh yeah
The car might be stolen,my clothes smell like dirt
Born to ramble and play
Play with fire, drunk and denial
Always in for a fight

I've been in the dark side (of) town
They are bringing me in
They called me The Wild Rover of Hell
I'm fighting for nickels and a dime,
for the rules I always break
See the blood I've split, I'll still be the haunted

Stitching my wounds like Rambo, for fanden
Damage complete and done
Some had better and some had worse
Walk a mile in quicksand
Spending the last bucks on whiskey and beers
Oh how clever I am
The dice keeps on tumbling, my will still unbroken
But how long will it last

I've been in the dark side (of) town
They are bringing me in
They called me The Wild Rover of Hell
I'm fighting for nickels and a dime,
for the rules I always break
See the blood I've split, I'll still be the haunted

I'm fighting them all big or small, my friend
Just show me the dollars
I end up losing it all again
Repeating the story

Driving the highway with nothing to do
Future fading away
The stereo is pumping Metallica tunes
Ride the lightning, oh yeah
The car might be stolen,my clothes smell like dirt
Born to ramble and play
Play with fire, drunk and denial
Always in for a fight

I've been in the dark side (of) town
They are bringing me in
They called me The Wild Rover of Hell
I'm fighting for nickels and a dime,
for the rules I always break
See the blood I've split, I'll still be the haunted


11.I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry


Hear the lonesome whipperwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

I never seen a night so long
When times goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud
To hide it's face and cry

Well maybe the night is cold
But together they fade
Like the shadow that ran up to the hills
Trying to fix her wings
There's a saint and a sinner
and forever the missing day
Where the winners and the loosers feel the same
Who knows what tomorrow brings

Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die
That means he's lost the will to live
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

The silence of a falling star
Lights a purple sky
And I wonder where you are
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

Well maybe the night is cold
But together they fade
Like the shadow that ran up to the hills
Trying to fix her wings
There's a saint and a sinner
and forever the missing day
Where the winners and the loosers feel the same
Who knows what tomorrow brings

Hear the lonesome whipperwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry


12.A Broken Man And The Dawn

There's a man looking blank into the wall
Older, colder and mumbling
Looking over his shoulder
Until the break of dawn
His eyes will not close

All the days are the same getting down
At the bar and he's mumbling
About the war and lost ones
Until the break of dawn
And where are his loved ones

Oh baby it's oh so cold in this place
Oh maybe it's all so close to the bitter end
Oh maybe it all just burns like a living hell
I'm all alone, and here comes the dawn

Hearing boots walking into the bar
Four men dragging their boxes
People stare and smell trouble
Until the break of dawn, the four men will go

Oh baby it's oh so cold in this place
Oh maybe it's all so close to the bitter end
Oh maybe it all just burns like a living hell
I'm all alone, and here comes the dawn

And the four men starts to open every case
And people wonder
When they pull out their instruments and play

Dear people we are the guitar gangsters
And we are here to join you
And ease the pain you're in
Now listen

Hearing boots walking into the bar
Four men dragging their boxes
People smile and they're roaring
Until the break of dawn, a new day is born

Oh baby it's oh so cold in this place
Oh maybe it's all so close to the bitter end
Oh maybe it all just burns like a living hell
I'm all alone, and here comes the dawn

Dear people we are the guitar gangsters
And we are here to join you
And ease the pain you're in
Now listen

Dear ladies and gentlemen
We thank you for your kindness
We're on the road again, forever


13.Find That Soul

I've sung the blues for every broken heart in here
Time to light up this joint with some boogie woogie
feelings move your hips
I've too felt love and now i leaves
Just to come knocking at my door and make me
bleed again

Feel the chain no longer holds
Finding yourself or you find that soul
Feel the chain no longer holds
Reaching for answers that no one knows

Should we spend each day like it's the last day of our lives
Yeah why not be a king for a day, I'll make you queen
and see how long it shines
Life ain't always what it seems
So grab it by the balls, and do your best before it leaves

Feel the chain no longer holds
Finding yourself or you find that soul
Feel the chain no longer holds
Reaching for answers that no one knows

Feel the chain no longer holds
Finding yourself or you find that soul

In the rearview mirror, only dessert and storm
Towards the sunset


14.Making Believe


Making believe,
That you still love me.
It's leaving me
Alone and so blue.
I'll always dream, but I'll never own you.
Making believe,
That's all I can do.

Making believe,
That you still love me.
It's leaving me
Alone and so blue.
I'll always dream, but I'll never own you.
Making believe,
That's all I can do.

I can't hold you close,
Darling when you're not with me.
You're somebody's love,
You'll never be mine.
Making believe,
I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you
And making believe.

I can't hold you close,
Darling when you're not near me.
You're somebody's love,
You'll never be mine.
Making believe,
I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you
And making believe.

Making believe,
That you still love me.
It's leaving me
Alone and so blue.
I'll always dream, but I'll never own you.
Making believe,
That's all I can do.

I can't hold you close,
Darling when you're not near me.
You're somebody's love,
You'll never be mine.
Making believe,
I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you
And making believe.
Just loving you
And making believe.
Just loving you
And making believe


15.Rebel Monster


Drunk again my baby
Well the water ain't my brand
That god damn demon booze
Forever hunting
Sitting on my shoulder
Talking to my inner self
Well, let's forever feed that rebel monster

Well here we go again no rules are set
And let us stay on the running train
Forever pumping - No ink on papers
To show the motherfuckers who I am
Let's forever be that rebel monster

Forever let the train be running
Without breaks
To a place like nothing else
A feeling out of tears
They came from everywhere
To see the running train
Wishing they were part of it

Duka duka duka bunga bunga
Just hold on because
The train went up in the air
and crashed to the ground
Boiled in blood my baby
With a broken leg and arm
Let's forever bleed that rebel monster

They came across the land
To get the lying train back on track
And worked for days
The sun were burning them
Someone stayed and someone left
But now it runs again to a place
Like nothing else


16.Soulweeper #2

Settle down for a moment 'cause your heart is beating hard
Baby, you've been my lover and I told you from the start
Better no promises and I'll do you no harm

But you're keep on the question I tell you not to pop
But maybe it's been a hurting, it's been hurting from the start
Do you not coping then tear it apart

Never wanted it this way
Oh baby, I'm dying I'm crying over it
Maybe you feel it to, oh baby, I'm blue

A barren winter came over and your mood was like a fire
7 years and a summer and you still sit there cry
You're better without me and you're one of a kind

If I knew that December should bring a silent part
Shaded truth and partisan between disperated lines
Truly now drifting alone in the dark

Never wanted it this way
Oh baby, I'm dying I'm crying over it
Maybe you feel it to, oh baby, I'm blue

Well, it's over and a letter is flying high
Out the window to catch a hand of thine
Could the founder release it's bloody words
Scream the anger and sorrow of a girl

But you're keep on the question I tell you not to pop
But maybe it's been a hurting, it's been hurting from the start
Do you not coping then tear it apart

Never wanted it this way
Oh baby, I'm dying I'm crying over it
Maybe you feel it to, oh baby, I'm blue
Maybe you feel it to, baby, I'm blue
