How do you wire a 12 volt spotlight to a 36 volt system golf cart?

The light will plug into any cigarette lighter. I'm planning on splitting the wires and putting clamps on each wire to clamp them onto the battery terminals. I have a golf cart I want to connect this to. The cart has 6 batteries, 6 volts each (total 36 volt system). All the batteries, of course, are wired together. How would I connect the clamps? To a single battery? To different batteries? Or can I even do it without blowing the bulb? Obviously I know nothing about electricity, but I've wired a light like this in the past to a 12 volt battery and it works fine. But how to wire one (if it can be done) into my golf cart with this 36 volt system with 6 batteries (6 volts each) has me puzzled. I don't want to ruin my light. Thanks for any help.
