Eldorado: A Return to the Classics

I’ve always had a hard time explaining the lyrics to this song but at the time I meant it 100%. There had come a time in my life that I had just given up on love and in that fleeting moment I wrote Eldorado. For the sake of the listeners I thought I’d include the lyrics this time since it is sang pretty quick.

Ps. I have since totally recovered …and yes I believe in love again!

Eldorado

Eldorado

All I wanna do is drive around the world in my Eldorado, Eldorado, Eldorado.
I don’t want a woman, just wanna ride in my Eldorado and cruise all my blues away.

I was deprived as a boy because I never had a dog who could catch a Frisbee.
Just don’t ask me, I get dizzy.
I was deprived as a man because I never had a woman who could shut up and kiss me,
rub my back and walk this way.(singer exaggeratedly wiggles his butt) Olé!

All I wanna do is drive around the world in my Eldorado, Eldorado, Eldorado.
I don’t want a woman, just wanna ride in my Eldorado and cruise all my blues away.

Well it’s long and black and takes no flack, on the highway, in the driveway or by the Bi-Way.
I bought myself a dog and clipped his nails and he drives with me. We need no women to mutilate our lives.

All I wanna do is drive around the world in my Eldorado, Eldorado, Eldorado.
I don’t want a woman, just wanna ride in my Eldorado and cruise all my blues away.

If you find me when I’m dead and gone, I bet you all my root-beer I still got my seat-belt on!
All I wanna do is drive around the world in my Eldorado and cruise all my blues away!

We sit on the hood in the evening sun and grow tomatoes, dream of Barbados and smell the rosados.
Dig holes for our bones in the summertime and change the oils an’ if I’m drunk I let him drive!

All I wanna do is drive around the world in my Eldorado, Eldorado, Eldorado.
I don’t want a woman, just wanna ride in my Eldorado and cruise all my blues away.
Olé!
