CADILLAC DREAMS

Gene Simmons, Vini Poncia

When I was seventeen, found out just what it means

If you can get it free, it just ain't worth a damn

When I heard the preacher say, don't throw your life away

I got that message, and I wrote it on the wall

I don't want anybody tellin' me lies, no, I don't want your diamond ring

'Cause you ain't got my size

I want money, money, that's what I need,

I got Cadillac dreams, please mister don'tcha take it from me

Give me money, money, more than I need, I got Cadillac dreams waitin' on me

Cadillac dreams, Cadillac dreams

When I had the young boy blues, I paid some young boy dues

I learned the hard way, there's a heartbreak every day

Stone cold reality came crashing down on me

Well life was hard on me, but I still don't give a damn

When I was seventeen I was an angry young man

But I won't let just anybody tell me who I am

I just want money, money, that's all I need

I got Cadillac dreams, hey mister don'tcha take it from me

Give me money, money, more than I need

These Cadillac dreams are waitin' on me

Didn't have the time of day, till this dream was born

You can't take that away, you can't take that away from me

Yeah, now dig this...

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, that's all I need

I got Cadillac dreams, hey mister you can't take that from me

I want money, money, more than I need

I got Cadillac dreams waitin' on me

Money, money, that's what I need

We're drivin' in my Chevy with my Cadillac dreams

Someday, one day, just you and me

We'll ride inside these Cadillac dreams

(repeat and fade)
