We he wanted someone firmer And he wanted someone younger And he always had a thing for blondes As it happened his new secratery happened to be All of that rolled into one And the woman who had lived with him And angel who had given him the last 22 years Is now crying big Cadillac tears Cadillac Tears don't hurt so bad Cadillac Tears she ain't so sad Well she might have lost her wedding ring But she took him for everything No momma didn't do too bad Aw she's crying big Cadillac Tears Well she's runnin' through his money So fast it isn't funny And she's emptied every shop in town She bought a mink and diamond rings And lots of other shiny things To wear when she goes stepping out And she's headed to her lawyers 'Cause this morning when he called he He said cheques are piling up here Aw she's crying big Cdillac tears Yeah she's crusin' down the street With custom wheels and leather seats You know she gets a new one every year Aw she's cryin' big Cadillac Tears Momma is cryin' big Cadillac Tears Big old Cadillac Tears
