-- B. Payne, B. Wray 


You can open the window 
Where the sunset meets the sea 
Everything's for sale 
Everything's for free 

Sweet mother Mary 
Sells her fortunes well 
She's got all the answers 
Just might save you from hell 

Across the street at the bottomless cup 
You can drink and drink but you can 
Never get enough 
You can have yours with sweet and low 
You might even have the blues to go 

One shot Johnny 
Got a dog on a rope 
Goin' from table to table 
With a pocket full of hope 

Rodeo riders and scarlet women 
Lean against your walls 
The show they're waitin' for 
Is just three steps down the hall 

The of king of jive looks like the queen of please 
Makes his livin' on his hands and knees 
You give and you give 'till you give it all 
Oh, just think if these walls could talk, oh 

I've climbed so high 
And I've surely fell 
Every story has a hero 
Down at the Cadillac Hotel 

El Dorado Slim 
Works behind the desk 
Either day or night 
He can handle any request 

J. C.'s screamin' 
Bout turnin' water to wine 
Got all in a big brown bag 
In the lobby, just past nine, in an old Maytag 

The homeless and haunted and street Van Gogh's 
Lace their souls up tight 
Hang your coat on a fin, you finally got in 
Get ready for Cadillac night 

Across the street at the bottomless cup 
It's not about money, you can never get enough 
A handful of honesty, a fist full of pride 
It's not how you live, it's how you survive 

I've climbed so high 
And I've surely fell 
Every story has a hero 
Down at the Cadillac Hotel 

I've climbed so high 
And I've surely fell 
Ten thousand feet to zero 
Down at the Cadillac Hotel
