Well I'm drivin' down the road in my Cadillac
Traffic lights nearby a road turnin' black
Drinkin' gasoline is a-all I do
Drinkin' gasoline to get over you
We were doin' swell, what a short way from Heaven to Hell.
Well I met you in the desert at Zabriskie Point
Out of gasoline, ran out of oil
Ya really filled my tank, you quite tuned me up
Drinkin' gasoline outta your silver cup
We were doin' swell, what a short way from Heaven to Hell.
Well I drove ten thousand miles away from home
Seen no traffic jam, been in no desert storm
Drinkin' silver cup is a-all I do
Drinkin' silver cup baby me and you
We were doin' swell, what a short way from Heaven to Hell.
Engine started smokin', wings on fire
Big wheel started shakin' and I lost a tire
My baby, she exploded drinkin' gasoline
Doggone that doggone that mean machine
We were doin' swell, what a short way from Heaven to Hell.
Well I'm drivin' down the road in my Cadillac
Traffic lights nearby, a road turnin' black
Drinkin' gasoline is a-all I do
Drinkin' gasoline to get over you
We were doin' swell, what a short way from Heaven to Hell.
Oh yea, we were doin' swell, what a short way from Heaven to Hell.
