(clint black/hayden nicholas) |
|
He's cadillac jack favor and the name rings true |
|
If he's got a ride any stranger would too |
|
The one bad habit that his ponder would say |
|
Is sure gonna put him through the trials one day |
|
And that's just what happened he took pity on two men |
|
Heading down to louisiana, he stopped and let them in |
|
And the thanks he did for helping them |
|
Would make him wish he was busting broncs again |
|
He dropped them off in bossieer city where they met up with a man |
|
That vagabond commitee barely even had a plan |
|
It was just a simple robbery turned double homicide |
|
They got away with murder it'd be someone else's hide |
|
Almost two years come and gone they never solved that crime |
|
'til they found one of our vagabonds already doing time |
|
When that jailbird started singing they all knew the words were wrong |
|
But the sheriff and the da and the judge all sang along |
|
They pinned it on jack favor, gave him life without parole |
|
Gave jack's freedom to the jailbird, payment on the lies he told |
|
Just so happens that election year everybody payed out at the polls |
|
Cadillac's no fallen hero and he's never gonna break |
|
When it comes to prison rodeo, there'll be no easy eight |
|
And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame |
|
It'd be in the dictionary underneath jack favor's name |
|
Cadillac's no fallen hero and he's never gonna break |
|
When it comes to prison rodeo, there's still no easy eight |
|
And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame |
|
It'd be in the dictionary underneath jack favor's name |
|
Yeah, it's the world's most crooked picture and when it comes to being framed |
|
Cadillac jack favor should be in the hall of fame |
