Lyrics

Black Eldorado

Driving down the road doing Eighty -five
Living real and bold / man this guy can drive
Man you got to wonder/ what's under the hood
Hi-beams- fast dreams/baby baby lets drive to Hollywood

He's got a black Eldorado (Black Eldorado)
He's got a shiny black Eldorado (Black Eldorado)
Hes got a black Eldorado (Black Eldorado)
He's got a black Eldorado (Black Eldorado)

Says he drives it just as fast as he can

1967 the closest year to heaven/tinted windows fins in the back
For barrels-Christmas carols (Got his shades on) /room for the choir in the back
When the light line is blurring/ and the V-8 is purring
Man the world is a beautiful place

(chorus)
Gets where he's going/ with the metal paint glowing
His car wants in the race
High class- made to last/ pedal down drive real fast
It's gone without a trace
When the light line is blurring/ and the V-8 is purring
Man the world is a beautiful place

(Chorus) 2x

Really good musicianship, and a nice vocal delivery. You also got all the right sounds for the time period. The instruments sound just right for the time period your capturing.
