Maybellene Lyrics

As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybellene in a coup de ville.
A Cadillac a-rollin on the open road,
nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford.
The cadillac doin' bout ninety-five,
shes b**per to b**ber rollin' side by side.
Maybellene, why cant you be true?
Oh Maybellene, why cant 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 and wouldn't do no more.
It then got cloudy and it started to rain,
I tooted my horn for a passin' lead
the rain water blowin all under my hood,
I knew that was doin' my motor good.
Maybellene, why cant you be true?
Oh Maybellene, why cant you be true?
You've started back doing the things you used to do.

The motor cooled down, the heat went down
and thats when I heard that highway sound.
The Cadillac a-sittin' like a ton of lead
a hundred and ten a half a mile ahead.
The Cadillac lookin' like its sittin still
and I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill.
Maybellene, why cant you be true?
Oh Maybellene, why cant you be true?
Youve started back doing the things you used to do.
