Just Like New - Jesse Winchester

That’s the same engine under the hood

Carried young Elvis to Hollywood

Been cross country a time or two

And look at it now, it’s just like new

He had a weakness for Cadillacs

A girl in the front and his friends in the back

That’s the original paint job too

And look at it now, it’s just like new

Elvis was happy, he felt pretty good

Here he was drivin' to Hollywood

Gassin' it up and pushin' it through

And look at it now, it’s just like new

According to one of Elvis’s friends

He took it up to a hundred and ten

He just wanted to see what his Caddy would do

And look at it now, it’s just like new

And my, my what a beautiful machine

Oh boy, it rides just like a dream

Just think of all that it’s been through

And look at it now, it’s just like new

He drove it to Memphis come Christmas time

Weather so fair, the future so fine

Say, mama them girls ain’t as pretty as you

Look at her daddy, she’s just like new

Elvis was always a dutiful child

Here everybody was thinkin' he’s wild

He bought his folks a Cadillac too

And look at it now, it’s just like new

Look at it now, it’s just like new

Look at it now, it’s just like new
