Maybelline

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

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

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

The Cadillac moved ti hundred nd 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

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

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

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
