Clint Black - Cadillac Jack Favor lyrics

rate me

He's Cadillac Jack Favor and the name rings true

If he's got a ride any stranger would too

The one bad habit that his Ponder would say

Is sure gonna put him through the trials one day

And that's just what happened he took pity on two men

Heading down to Louisiana, he stopped and let them in

And the thanks he did for helping them

Would make him wish he was busting broncs again

He dropped them off in Bossieer City where they met up with a man

That vagabond commitee barely even had a plan

It was just a simple robbery turned double homicide

They got away with murder it'd be someone else's hide

Almost two years come and gone they never solved that crime

'Til they found one of our vagabonds already doing time

When that jailbird started singing they all knew the words were wrong

But the sheriff and the DA and the judge all sang along

They pinned it on Jack Favor, gave him life without parole

Gave Jack's freedom to the jailbird, payment on the lies he told

Just so happens that election year everybody payed out at the polls

Cadillac's no fallen hero and he's never gonna break

When it comes to prison rodeo, there'll be no easy eight

And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame

It'd be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name

Cadillac's no fallen hero and he's never gonna break

When it comes to prison rodeo, there's still no easy eight

And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame

It'd be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name

Yeah, it's the world's most crooked picture and when it comes to being framed

Cadillac Jack Favor should be in the hall of fame
