Oh, Maybelline
Why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybelline
Why can't you be true?
You've started back doin'
The things you used to do
As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybelline in a Coupe de Ville
Cadillac rollin' on the open road
But nothin' outrun my V8 Ford
Cadillac doin' about ninety-five
Bumper to bumper rollin' side to side
Maybelline
Why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybelline
Why can't you be true?
You've started back doin'
The things you used to do
Well,
The Cadillac moved up ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
At just that time, it started to rain
I tooted my horn for the passin' lane
The rain water poured up
Under my motor hood
I knew that were doin' my motor good
Maybelline
Why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybelline
Why can't you be true?
You've started back doin'
The things you used to do
The heat went down,the motor cooled down
and that's when I heard that highway sound
Cadillac lookin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
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 started back doin'
The things you used to do
