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 a Coupe de Ville
Cadillac rode on an open road
Nothin' outrun my V-8 Ford
Cadillac doin' about nine to five
Bumper to bumper, roller 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 passin' lane
Rain water blowin' all under my hood
I knew that was doin' 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 settin' 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
