Foghat - Maybellene lyrics

Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true? You done started back doing the things you used to do As I was motivatin' over the hill I saw Maybellene in a Coup de Ville Cadillac rollin' on the open road Nothin' outrun my V8 Ford Cadillac doin' 'bout 95 Bumper to bumper, rollin' side by side Maybellene, why can't you be true? Whoa, Maybellene, why can't you be true? You done started back doing the things you used to do Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more Done got cloudy and it started to rain I tooted my horn 'til I pa**ed the lane Rainwater blowin' all under my hood I knew that I was doin' my motor good Maybellene, why can't you be true? Whoa, 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 the highway sound Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead Hundred and ten, a half a mile ahead Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' in steel And I called Maybellene at the top of the hill Maybellene, why can't you be true? Whoa, Maybellene, why can't you be true? You done start back doing the things you used to do
