[Intro]
Hey, baby!

[Verse 1]
Cadillac, Cadillac take me home
I would rather sit there all alone
Than watch you run around this dancefloor light
With everybody but me, it just ain't right
Cadillac, Cadillac take me home
I'd rather play games on my G4 phone
Than watch you flirt at the bar all damn night
With everybody but me, girl, it just ain't right

[Chorus]
Right what you do
To a man falling all over you
Right, right what you say
Making me dance alone that way
Now I, do what I can
But when it comes to women, I don't understand
So I, I'm out of here
Call yourself a cab watch my Cadillac disappear

[Interlude]
Hey, baby!

[Verse 2]
Cadillac, Bernie Mac's on the tube
Think I'm gonna spend my night with you?
She wouldn't know a good thing like I said
If it hit her from behind, upside the head
Cadillac, do I lack what it takes?
Every time I love, seems my heart breaks
I'd rather sit online, stare in cyberspace
Than lose another part of me to another pretty face

[Chorus]
Right what you do
To a man falling all over you
Right, right what you say
Making me dance alone that way
Now I, do what I can
But when it comes to women, I don't understand
So I, I'm out of here
Call yourself a cab watch my Cadillac disappear

[Interlude - Extended]
Hey, baby!
I'll be alright now, now, baby
Hey, baby!

[Chorus]
Right, right what you do
To a man falling all over you
Right, right what you say
Making me dance alone that way
Now I, do what I can
But when it comes to women, I don't understand
So I, I'm out of here
Call yourself a cab watch my Cadillac disappear

[Outro]
Hey, baby!
Be alright now, now, baby
Hey, baby!
I'll be alright now, now, baby

Train is an American rock band from San Francisco, formed in 1993. The band currently consists of Patrick Monahan (lead vocals), Luis Maldonado (guitar), Hector Maldonado (bass, vocals), Drew Shoals (drums), Jerry Becker (keyboards, guitar), Sakai Smith (backup vocals), and Nikita Houston (backup vocals).

With a lineup that included original members Monahan, Rob Hotchkiss, Jimmy Stafford, Scott Underwood, and Charlie Colin, the band achieved mainstream success with their debut album Train, which was released in 1998 with the hit “Meet Virginia”. Train’s 2001 album, Drops of Jupiter contained the lead single “Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)”, which won two Grammy Awards in 2002. The album was certified double platinum in the United States and Canada and remains the band’s best-selling album to date.

Train’s third studio album, My Private Nation, released in 2003, was certified platinum in the United States with the hit “Calling All Angels”. Following the departures of Hotchkiss and Colin, the band released their fourth album, For Me, It’s You in 2006, with Brandon Bush (keyboards) and Johnny Colt (bass). Despite a generally positive reception from critics, the album was commercially unsuccessful. Because of this, Train went on a two-year hiatus from recording any new music.
