Willie the Wimp was buried today,
|
They laid him to rest in a special way.
|
Sent him off in the finest style
|
That casket-mobile really drove 'em wild
|
Southside Chicago will think of him often
|
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin,
|
Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
|
|
That casket, it looked like a fine Seville
|
He had a vanity license and a Cadillac grille
|
Willie was propped up in the driver's seat
|
He had diamonds on his fingers and a smile sweet
|
Fine red suit had the whole town talkin'
|
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
|
Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
|
|
Oh, Cadillac to Heaven he was wavin' the banner
|
He left like he lived, in a lively manner
|
With a-hundred dollar bills in his fingers tight
|
He had flowers for wheels and a-flashin' headlights
|
He been wishin' for wings, no way he was walkin'
|
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
|
Yeah, Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
|
