Maybellene

Maybellene, why can't you be true?

Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?

You done started doing the things you used to do

As I was motivatin' over the hill

I saw Maybellene in a Coupé de Ville

A Cadillac a-rollin on the open road

Nothin' will outrun my V-8 Ford

The Cadillac doin' 'bout 95

She bumper to bumper, rollin' side by side

Maybellene, why can't you be true?

Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?

You done started back doin' the things you used to do

The Cadillac pulled up at 104

The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more

It done got cloudy and started to rain

I tooted my horn for the passin' lane

The rain water blowin' all under my hood

I knew that wasn't doin' my motor good

Maybellene, why can't you be true?

Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?

You done started back doin' the things you used to do

Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?

Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?

You done started back doin' the things you used to do

The motor cooled down, the heat went down

And that's when I heard that highway sound

Cadillac sittin' like toad on a lake

A 110, a half mile ahead

The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still

And I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill

Maybellene, why can't you be true?

Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?

You done started back doin' the things you used to do
