[Verse 1]
Hawaiian tropic, dark, and a bottle of jack in the Cadillac
As I drive down the highway
You aren't coming back and I know that now
So I let the wind hit me in my face

[Chorus]
Every man gets his wish
Every man gets his wish

[Verse 2]
Your red Hawaiian shirt and your hair jet black
Hanging 'round with your friends by the track
Baby, you can't come back from being that bad
Just to sit at home, pledge allegiance to the flag

[Chorus - Variation]
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
You told me this, now you're gone

[Verse 3]
Copacabana, yes in my party dress
I’m shimmering in love on that crystal meth
A Coca Cola kid, roller coaster child
You my everything, give me that baby doll smile

[Chorus - Variation 2]
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
You told me this, where is mine?
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
You told me this, were you lyin'?

[Bridge]
And the velvet Elvis and the rosaries
And your white Corvette under willow trees
You the one for me, my one true king

[Chorus - Variation]
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
You told me this, now you're gone
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
You told me this, now you're gone

[Verse 4]
I remember party dresses
I remember party dresses

[Outro]
Every man gets his wish
Every man gets his wish
But sometimes it comes too late
