Lyrics Maybellene - Live - Elvis Presley

We got a song right now, friends
That we, we like to do for you
We even doin' it bu-bu-bu-but-but
Wa-wa-wa... yeah
We ain't done it but one song losin' your hair, righ'?
We only learned it couple days ago
So we'd like to do it for you right now
And we hope you like te way we do it
It's a song about the...
It's a song about a...
It's a song, it goes on like this
Get ready
Maybellene (my Maybellene), why can't you be true?
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You now started back doing the things you used to do
That was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybellene in a coup de ville
A Cadillac a-rollin' on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The cadillac doin' 'bout 95
And the bumper to bumber rollin' side by side.
Maybellene (my Maybellene), why can't you be true? (My May...)
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You now started back doing the things you used to do
The cadillac moved to a hundred and four
Got hot and wouldn't do no more
It then got cloudy and started to rain
I tooted my horn for the passing lane
The rain water blowin' all under my hood
I knew that was doin' my motor good
Maybellene (my Maybellene), why can't you be true? (Hoo!)
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You now started back doing the things you used to do
Hit it!
Maybellene (my Maybellene), why can't you be true?
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
You now started back doing the things you used to do
The motor cooled down, the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
Cadillac a-sittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
And I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill
Maybellene (my Maybellene), why can't you be true? (Hoo! Maybellene)
Oh Maybellene (my Maybellene), why can't you be true?
You now started back doing the things you used to do
You now started back doing the things you used to do
Aww, that's real nice pretty song, yeah? ('Right, friends)
I was coming back anyway (Johnny want here tonight)
No, Johnny, not here tonight
