'88 Cadillac

Woke up bright and early today
Think I'll go get into something
Ask my mom if I can go play
She said don't get in to nothing
I'm stringing toys all over the place
She said boy stop all that jumping
Got my toys marching in a parade
They go somewhere you know I'm coming

Oh
Turn up the jams
In my car seat don't know where I am
Barely even know why they calling me cam
My mama say sleep and I say yes ma'am
And I'm like oh
Turn up the jams
In my car seat don't know where I am
Barely even know why they calling me cam
My mama say sleep and I say yes ma'am

I was just a little boy
Sitting in the back
Of my granddaddy blue Cadillac
Sipping on juice
With a honey bun in my hand
Always had a vision and a plan
I was just a little boy
Sitting in the back
Of my granddaddy blue Cadillac
Handful of change
My mama just got paid
Bout to catch a summer matinee

Now that I'm grown I miss it
I done used all my wishes
I done had all my fun
Gotta count my expenses
How did I get so lucky
What did I do so great
What did I do to deserve these blessings
Tell me, what did it take
I reflect on the past
Long enough for me to coat it in smiles
My memories happy
But feel like I'm missing something from when I was a child
Part of me wishes the years that I lived
Have all been part of a dream
But part of me knows it's life
And that it's normal to grieve

Oh
Turn up the song
I know that I've probably been singing it wrong
I can reminisce on the way back home
Know that I can cry when I'm driving alone
Oh
Turn up the song
I know that I've probably been singing it wrong
I can reminisce on the way back home
Know that I can cry when I'm driving alone

Sipping on juice
With a honey bun in my hand
Always had a vision and a plan
I was just a little boy
