The Preacher's Black Cadillac - West Coast AI (Gothic Southern Rock)

Подробнее о видео

"The Preacher's Black Cadillac" is a Southern Gothic rock song that tells the eerie story of a preacher driving a black Cadillac down a dark, winding road. The lyrics evoke a sense of dread and mystery as the preacher grapples with his past sins and a deal with the devil that haunts him. The haunting imagery of a moonlit night, a desolate graveyard, and the relentless journey of the preacher through the night creates a moody, atmospheric narrative filled with themes of redemption, fate, and the inescapable consequences of one's actions.

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
In the shadow of the church, beneath the cypress trees
There’s a whisper on the wind, carried by the breeze
The congregation’s silent, their eyes full of fear
For they know the preacher’s comin’, and the end is near
His hands are on the wheel, his face a solemn mask
He’s driving through the night, on a long-forgotten task

Chorus:
In the preacher’s black Cadillac
He’s rollin’ down the road, there’s no turnin’ back
With a Bible in his hand, and the devil on his track
You can hear him hummin' softly, in that black Cadillac
The road is winding, the night is long
But he’s got a date with fate, where he doesn’t belong

Verse 2:
The wheels grind the gravel, like bones beneath the earth
The preacher’s eyes are hollow, no sign of rebirth
He’s been driving since the sunrise, with a mission from the Lord
But the shadows in his rearview hide a deal he can’t afford
There’s a cross on his collar, but the weight of his sin
Keeps dragging him deeper, where the light grows thin

Chorus:
In the preacher’s black Cadillac
He’s rollin’ down the road, there’s no turnin’ back
With a Bible in his hand, and the devil on his track
You can hear him hummin' softly, in that black Cadillac
The road is winding, the night is long
But he’s got a date with fate, where he doesn’t belong

Bridge:
The moon is high, the night is cold
There’s a story left untold
Of the preacher’s soul and the price he paid
In a midnight deal that won’t fade away

Verse 3:
He pulls up to the chapel, where the faithful used to pray
But now it’s just a graveyard, where the sinners lay
He steps out of the shadows, his collar stiff and tight
But the fire in his footsteps shows a man who’s lost the light
There’s no salvation left, no heaven in sight
Just the preacher and his Cadillac, driving through the night

Chorus:
In the preacher’s black Cadillac
He’s rollin’ down the road, there’s no turnin’ back
With a Bible in his hand, and the devil on his track
You can hear him hummin' softly, in that black Cadillac
The road is winding, the night is long
But he’s got a date with fate, where he doesn’t belong
Where he doesn’t belong

Final Chorus:
In the preacher’s black Cadillac
He’s fading in the night, on a lonesome track
With the Bible on the seat, and the past on his back
You can hear the silence screaming in that black Cadillac
The road has ended, the journey’s done
Now he rides with shadows, never to see the sun
