The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood" by the artist "Volbeat"

Contents

The lyrics of the song "Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood" by Volbeat tell the story of the mysterious Mr. Cadillac, who, after recovering from an attempt on his life (as described in the song "7 Shots"), sets out to find his offender.

From the very first lines – "Out of the darkness comes Mr. Cadillac" – an atmosphere of mystery and suspense is created. Mr. Cadillac, like a character from a film noir, is driven by a thirst for revenge. His path lies in the ominous town of "Ten Houses", where his only lead is the band "Guitar Gangsters".

He meets the musicians in a bar – a place full of shadows and innuendo. "People are looking at him like he's a ghost" – this phrase emphasizes the strangeness and danger emanating from Mr. Cadillac. The band's performance becomes not just entertainment for him, but also a kind of test: by observing the audience's reaction, he hopes to identify his enemy.

The chorus of the song, repeated throughout the text, is "Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood, / They came down the road, they came from the dark. / They came to a place even darker" – emphasizes the atmosphere of hopelessness and doom that reigns in this remote town.

There's a Cadillac out in the dark

There's a guitar gangster lighting a smoke

And he feels the night, and he feels the fire

Driving into the city unknown

Ten small houses is what he face in the cold

And then feel the night, can you feel the fire

Guitar Gangsters and Cadillac Blood

They came from the road and out of the dark

Went into a place even darker

Guitar Gangsters and Cadillac Blood

Walking into a place called The Bar

People looking like a ghost had arrived

And he feels the eyes, can you feel the eyes

Guitar Gangsters and Cadillac Blood

They came from the road and out of the dark

Went into a place even darker

Guitar Gangsters and Cadillac Blood

Dear ladies, gentlemen, don't be afraid

We are here to ease your pain

Let it all start with a song

I'm sure we'll get along

Guitar Gangsters and Cadillac Blood

They came from the road and out of the dark

Went into a place even darker

Guitar Gangsters and Cadillac Blood
