The Washington Capitals gave a rare peek inside the locker room after the team’s first-round victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs.
As the happy players undressed and packed up their gear, they jammed out to a mid-80’s country rock song.

The song is a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s Cadillac Ranch performed by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
I’m going to go ahead and guess this is not from Ovi’s playlist.
Full song
The full lyrics are here.
There she sits buddy just a-gleaming in the sun,
There to greet a working man when his day is done
I’m gonna pack my pa and I’m gonna pack my aunt,
I’m gonna take them down to the Cadillac ranch.El Dorado fins, whitewalls and skirts;
Rides just like a little bit of heaven here on earth.
When i die, buddy, throw my body in the back,
Take me to the junkyard in my Cadillac.Cadillac, Cadillac,
Long and dark, shiny and black
Open up your engines let `em roar
Tearing up the highway like a big old dinosaurJames Dean in a Mercury `49
Junior Johnson runnin’ in the woods of Caroline
Even Burt Reynolds in a black trans am
Are gonna meet me down at the Cadillac ranchCadillac, Cadillac
Long and dark, shiny and black
Open up your engines, let ’em roar
Tearin’ up the highway like a big old dinosaurHey little girlie in the blue jeans so tight
Drivin’ all alone in a Colorado night
You’re my last love, baby, you’re my last chance
Don’t let `em take me down to the Cadillac ranchCadillac, Cadillac
Long and dark, shiny and black;
Open up them engines, let ’em roar;
Tearin’ up the highway like a big old dinosaur
Thank you, Soundhound app, for saving the day.
