Story Behind The Song

Lyrics: Cadillac She never felt a love like that even though her daddy drove a cadillac She met him by her pool out back he was cutting the grass, she was wearing in black He said I like the way you dress I think I wanna take you on a trip out west I'm gonna leave this town I'm gonna throw away my phone I'm gonna drive across the country do you wanna come along? She fell in love with that boy they ran away with the car Oh they were dressed in black driving out west in a cadillac She fell in love with that boy They made it all the way to the tri-county line her foot on the gas they were making good time it was the middle of the night they thought nobody would know that's why they couldn't believe it when they heard it on the radio her daddy woke up and he saw the light he never was at home but he was tonight he walked into her room she left a note on her phone it said I'm never looking back and I'm never coming home, well
