Lyrics Maybellene - 1967 Version - Berry , Chuck
Oh
Maybellene,
why
can′t
you
be
true?
Oh
Maybellene,
why
can't
you
be
true?
You
done
started
back
doing
the
things
you
used
to
do
As
I
was
motorvatin′
over
the
hill
I
saw
Maybellene
in
a
Coupé
de
Ville
A
Cadillac
rollin'
on
the
open
road
Nothin'
will
outrun
my
V8
Ford
The
Cadillac
doin′
about
95
She′s
bumper
to
bumper
rollin'
side
by
side
Maybellene,
why
can′t
you
be
true?
Oh
Maybellene,
why
can't
you
be
true?
You
done
started
back
doing
the
things
you
used
to
do
Kicked
in
the
mirror
at
the
top
of
the
hill
Just
like
swallowing
up
a
medicine
pill
First
take
swang
at
the
Cadillac
thrill
Doin′
a
hundred
and
ten
droppin'
over
that
hill
Uphill
curve,
a
downhill
stretch
Me
and
that
Cadillac
neck
at
neck
Maybellene,
why
can′t
you
be
true?
Oh
Maybellene,
why
can't
you
be
true?
You
done
started
back
doing
the
things
you
used
to
do
Maybellene,
why
can't
you
be
true?
Oh
Maybellene,
why
can′t
you
be
true?
You
done
started
back
doing
the
things
you
used
to
do
A
Cadillac
pulled
up
to
hundred
and
four
The
Ford
got
hot
and
wouldn′t
do
no
more
It
done
got
a
cloud
and
started
to
rain
I
tooted
my
horn
for
the
passin'
lane
The
rain
water
blowin′
all
under
my
hood
But
I
knew
that
was
doin'
my
motor
good
Maybellene,
why
can′t
you
be
true?
Oh
Maybellene,
why
can't
you
be
true?
You
done
started
back
doing
the
things
you
used
to
do
The
motor
cooled
down,
the
heat
went
down
That′s
when
I
heard
that
highway
sound
The
Cadillac
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
Maybellene
at
the
top
of
the
hill
Maybellene,
why
can't
you
be
true?
Oh
Maybellene,
why
can′t
you
be
true?
You
done
started
back
doing
the
things
you
used
to
do
