On That Note - This Year's Model

Well I can see me now in my long Cadillac
Hinges in the middle, spare wheel on the back...

(Warren Smith's 1958 classic)

I need a ruling. Does a song about a motorcycle work?

Well, I actually expected someone to post "Little Honda" which of course is a motorcycle. Back then Honda weren't importing automobiles yet.

And she'll have fun fun fun

Driving out of Darlington County
See Wayne handcuffed to the bumper of a state trooper's Ford

Go 55 seconds in on the video. K-Car


I have a recording of BNL doing this song in Boulder, CO where they improvise "Mork's Jeep" in place of limousine.

A lot of mentions by my man Eazy. Oh, definitely NSFW.

Cruisin' down the street in my six-fo'
A fresh El Camino rolled
I pulled up in my 6-4 Impala
Then wrapped the six-fo' round the telephone poll
An undercover cop in a dark green Nova

There are also tons of other rappers that reference certain cars in their lyrics. Such as Snoop, Dr. Dre, The Weekend, Drake, Rick Ross to name a few. Since this thread looks like it mostly deals with “oldies” and “classics” I’m not gonna post any other rap/hip hop songs than this one as it’s the first song that came to mind- and the name of the song is a car brand.

CONVOY!!

...and eleven long-haired Friends of Jesus in a chartreuse microbus...
Definitely my favorite line from that song!

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

I don't think this has anything to do with cars but I submit T Rex "Buick MacKane"

great thread.....love me some cadillac songs...

 

[jcyclonee]

How about a song about a specific car engine? Beach Boys-409

Specific car engine? I guess you just asked to see Vanilla Ice rollin' in his 5.0.

 

[jcyclonee]

"I remember we learned about love in the back of a Chevrolet." I like this song despite this cheesy line.

I saw someone posted Cadillac Ranch, but this is the correct version.

Don Henley saw a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac


She won't go to Harlem in Lincolns or Fords

Reminded me of this one:


"It's a girl, my lord, in a flatbed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me"
