Lyrics
Three of us, in an old Cadillac
Fast woman, never looking back
Shifting gears, three on a tree
In our ride, we're wild and free
Three and a tree, wild nights ahead
Old cars, fast love, sharing the bed
Underneath that fake tree glow
In the sheets, we let it flow
Leather seats, and roaring nights
In our world, we take flight
Her lipstick stains, on my neck
In the backseat, what the heck
Three and a tree, wild nights ahead
Old cars, fast love, sharing the bed
Underneath that fake tree glow
In the sheets, we let it flow
Three on a tree, shifting high
Fast woman, living sky
In the shade, secrets kept
Under the tree, where we slept
Three and a tree, wild nights ahead
Old cars, fast love, sharing the bed
Underneath that fake tree glow
In the sheets, we let it flow
Morning breaks, dawn's embrace
In this car, we found our place
Fast woman, fake tree gleam
Three of us, living the dream
