Lyrics
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You gotta start back doing the things you used to do
As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybellene in the Coupe DeVille
Cadillac rode on an open road
Nothing outrun my V-8 Ford
Cadillac doin' about a ninety-five
Bumper to bumper, rollin' side to side
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You gotta start back doing the things you used to do
My Cadillac pulled up to a hundred and four
My Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
Sun got tired and started to rain
I tooted my horn for the passing lane
Rainwater blowin' all under my hood
I knew that was doing my motor good
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You gotta start back doing the things you used to do
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You gotta start back doing the things you used to do
Well, my motor cooled down, the heat went down
That's when I heard that highway sound
Cadillac's sittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten half a mile ahead
Cadillac lookin' like a set of steel
And I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You gotta start back doing the things you used to do
