Johnny Rivers - Maybelline lyrics

As I was motivatin' over the hill I saw Mabellene in a Coup de Ville A Cadillac a-rollin' on the open road Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford The Cadillac doin' about 95 She's bumper to bumper, rollin' side by side Maybellene, why can't you be true Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true You've started back doin' the things you used to do Well, the Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more It then got cloudy and started to rain I tooted my horn for a pa**in' lane The rainwater blowin' all under my hood I know that I was doin' my motor good Maybellene, why can't you be true Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true You've started back doin' the things you used to do The heat went down, the motor cooled down And that's when I heard that highway sound The Cadillac a-sittin' like a ton of lead A hundred and ten half a mile ahead The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still I caught Mabellene at the top of the hill Maybellene, why can't you be true Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true You've started back doin' the things you used to do
