Going Down In Style Lyrics

verse 1: i left Houston, Texas on a gulf coast hurricane
i was blowed down by a
tornado washed up by the rain well my pappy wasnt happy
with mehe told me to go
so i stole my daddy's cadillac and head on down the
road i had a grin from ear
to ear with each and every mile i was headed for the
border man and i was going
down in style

verse 2: now i hit Corpus Christi and the wind was at my back i drove them
women crazy with my daddy's cadillac ya i cruised them
down that boulevard i
treated them like queens took em all the places that
they wanted to be seen and
when i had to leave em i'd tell with a smile im headed
for the border man and
i'm goin down in style

bridge: well you gotta take your chances if they ever come along close your
eyes and listen to the great big engine wind it dont
really matter weather you
are right or wrong cause when you cross the border man you leave this world

verse 3: i stomped on down the peddle set the cruise
control 500 raging horses
be on by the state patrol lord the sirens were a screamin
lights flashin red
there's a dozen more waitin at the road block up ahead
had them scatteren like
chickens a heard one of them say he's headed toward
the border and he's going
down in style

verse 4: now when you cross the border you aint never
comin back there aint to
redemption when the cops are on your tail when the
closest thing to heaven is a
great big cadillac the city lights of Houston or the
firey gates of hell well
the nabbed me on the hill that over looks the Rio Grande
and i was feeling just
like moses lookin on the promise land well they hauled
me back to Houston put
me in the jail where my momma started crying my daddy paid the bail well im
sorry im not there to hear the outcome of my trial cause im headed for the
border man and im going down in style
