It's called Maximum Honky Tonk, and no one plays it like Bob Wire. Country, blues, rockabilly, folk, and some good ol' rock and roll. Honest, smart and funny.
Funniest blog on the web? Judge for yourself at NewWest.net/BobWire. You won't regret it. I swear. This is Butt-twitchin' country music for adults with a brain and a sense of humor! Bob Wire writes catchy, original songs with a twisted perspective that puts him way out in the left field of Nashvegas. Bob sez: Hank Jr. is the disease, and Hank Sr. is the cure.

Story behind the song
Every songwriter worth his salt writes at least one song about Cadillacs. This is mine.
Lyrics
Cadillac Jones was a man on a mission He liked shallow women and deep sea fishing He didn’t do drugs and he didn’t drink liquor There was only one thing made his heart beat quicker Wasn’t weed or whiskey or little white pills It was a drop-top ‘59 Coupe de Ville He was going on ten when he saw his first Caddy Up in the treefort hiding from his daddy A Cadillac drove right past his home Twenty feet long and dripping with chrome He thought he was gonna have a heart attack He changed his name and he never looked back Chorus Cadillac Jones, Cadillac Jones Deep in his bones, he had a Cadillac jones Cadillac Jones, Cadillac Jones Everybody called him...Mr. Cadillac Jones Solo He left town on graduation day Rode a Greyhound bus all the way to L.A. The air was dirty and the sun was hot He found a job at a used car lot Now he’s rubbing elbows with movie stars And he spends his days washing Cadillac cars Chorus Cadillac Jones, Cadillac Jones Deep in his bones, he had a Cadillac jones Cadillac Jones, Cadillac Jones Everybody called him...Mr. Cadillac Jones Cadillac Jones, Cadillac Jones Deep in his bones, he had a Cadillac jones Cadillac Jones, Cadillac Jones Everybody called him...Mr. Cadillac Jones
