Songtexte Maybellene - Tommy Roe

Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Done started back doin' the things you used to do

As I was motorvatin' over the hill
I saw Maybelline in a Coupe DeVille
Cadillac rollin' on the open road
Nothin' outrun my V8 Ford
Cadillac doin' 'bout ninety-five
We was bumper to bumper, rollin' side by side

Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
Oh Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
You done started back doin' the things you used to do (Maybelline)

Cadillac pulled to a hundred-four
Ford got hot, wouldn't do no more
Done got cloudy and started to rain
Tooted my horn for the passin' lane
Rainwater blowin' all under my hood
I knew I was doin' my motor good

Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
Oh Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
You done started back doin' the things you used to do (Maybelline)

Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
Oh Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
You done started back doin' the things you used to do (Maybelline)

My motor cooled down, the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead
Hundred-and-ten half a mile ahead
Cadillac looked like it's sittin' still
And I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill

Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
Oh Maybelline (Maybelline), why can't you be true? (Maybelline)
You done started back doin' the things you used to do (Maybelline)
