View chords used in this chart
[Intro: ](E) (E) (E) (E)
When I (E) laid eyes on her that's when I knew
To win her love, there's nothing I wouldn't do
(A) Talkin' to her, all that seemed to give her a thrill
Were (E) Fleetwoods, ElDorados, and Coup Devilles
Well, I (C#m) might've stretched the truth, just a tiny bit
When I (A) told her that I had one with the (B) Continental kit
Well, (A) I don't steal, but I've been known to borrow
To(E)night we've been rollin' like there's no tomorrow
She's (B) cuddlin' up close - rubbin' my back
Doin' a little this - doin' a little that
Sure gonna hate to have to sneak it back
Cause, we've been (A) ridin' 'round in someone else's Cadillac
(E) (E) (E) (E)
Got my (E) Uncle Willie's watch and my daddy's money clip
My cousin Bubba's black boots, with the gold and silver tips
She's (A) purrin' like a kitten, I'm the cat's meow
Gonna (E) trade a week's pay for a night on the town
(C#m) How can I tell her, what she don't know
When she's (A) sittin' here thinkin' I'm the (B) King Of The Road
Well, (A) I don't steal, but I've been known to borrow
To(E)night we've been rollin' like there's no tomorrow
She's (B) cuddlin' up close - rubbin' my back
Doin' a little this - doin' a little that
Sure gonna hate to have to sneak it back
Cause, we've been (A) ridin' 'round in someone else's Cadillac

(A) (A) (E) (E) (A) (A) (B) (B)
We were (C#m) in the backseat parked under the stars
When I (A) saw the blue lights of that (B) police car
Hey now officer, (A) I don't steal, but I've been known to borrow
To(E)night we've been rollin' like there's no tomorrow
She's (B) cuddlin' up close - rubbin' my back
Doin' a little this - doin' a little that
Sure gonna hate to have to sneak it back
Cause, we've been (A) ridin' 'round in someone else's Cadillac
(A) (A) (A) (A)
