Maybellene Songtext
von Jim Lowe

Maybelline, why can′t you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You′ve started back doing the things you used to do

As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybelline in a Coupe De Ville
A Cadillac a-rollin' on the open road
Nothin′ will outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac a-doin′ about ninety-five
Bumper to bumper, side by side

Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can′t you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do


The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot, wouldn′t do no more
It then got cloudy and it started to rain
I tooted my horn for a passin' lane
The rain water blowin′ all under my hood
I knew I was doin' my motor good

Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can′t you be true?
You′ve started back doing the things you used to do

Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can′t you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do

The motor cooled down, the heat went down
That′s when I heard that highway sound
The Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten half a mile ahead
The Cadillac lookin′ like it's sittin' still
I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill

Maybelline, why can′t you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can′t you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do
