Maybelline Lyrics

[Chorus]
Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You done started back doing the things you used to do

[Verse 1]
Well as I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybelline 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
Bumper to bumber rollin' side by side

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

[Verse 2]
The Cadillac moved to a hundred and four
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

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

[Verse 3]
The motor cooled down, the speed went down
And that's 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 it's sittin' still
And I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill

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