Lyrics

Heartbreak Highway

Jet black Cadillac Easy Money's in the back
Grinnin' and flashin' the cash
Ten foot tail fins pearl white shark skin naugahyde covers the dash
Rhinestone rear view Red flame hood scoop
Blue suede Saturday night radio lip syncin'
I don't know but I'm thinkin' Elvis just cain't be white
Pullin' up aside me Lordy mama help me vision of sweet sixteen
Poodle skirt pony tail young vapor trail
Passin' and a winkin' at me

Down Heartbreak Highway she's movin' like a Maybelene
Down Heartbreak Highway that girl be the death of me

Two door drop top Cherry red chopped top
49' Mercury
Leopard skin outfit rubies on her red lips blowin' them kisses at me
Hot pink wrap a rounds Diamond back get down
Snake skin tuck and roll
Big hair big flirt alligator fender skirts attitude out of control
Diamonds on her headlights carvin' out a midnight
Moonlight highway cruise
Drop perfume jailhouse tattoo
blood red 'Don't Be Cruel'

Down Heartbreak Highway She's movin like a Maybelene
Down Heartbreak Highway that girl be the death of me

Heartbreak Highway even on a good day's
Nothin' but a James Dean big screen teenage dream
Like a rebel yell out of Elvis hell
I'm chasin' that Fuel-injected Rock-a-billy Queen

Easy Money's in the jump seat Lucky Strikes in his shirt sleeve
Yellin' like a drunk marine
Drivin' like a big dog howlin' like a mad dog
Chasin that sweet young thing
Shove her into overdrive Miss a gear man alive
Side pipes startin' to sing
Eatin' up asphalt Caddy now don't stall catchin' that Mercury
Man I'm thinkin' that hot rod Lincoln can't run like this all night
It's gold plate hub caps V-8 love that's chasin' that tonight

Down Heartbreak Highway she's movin' like a Maybelene
Down Heartbreak Highway that girl be the death of me
that gal be the death of me
Heartbreak Highway be the death of me
