Lyrics

[00:04.92] Maybellene, why can't you be true
[00:08.57] Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
[00:13.51] You've started back doin' the things you used to do
[00:17.62] As I was motivatin' over the hill
[00:19.45] I saw Mabellene in a Coup de Ville
[00:21.67] A Cadillac arollin' on the open road
[00:23.56] Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
[00:25.73] The Cadillac doin' about ninety-five
[00:27.88] She's bumper to bumper, rollin' side by side
[00:29.45] Maybellene, why can't you be true
[00:32.82] Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
[00:37.51] You've started back doin' the things you used to do
[00:42.12] The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford
[00:43.80] The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
[00:45.89] It then got cloudy and started to rain
[00:47.91] I tooted my horn for a passin' lane
[00:49.96] The rainwater blowin' all under my hood
[00:51.92] I know that I was doin' my motor good
[00:53.96] Maybellene, why can't you be true
[00:57.41] Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
[01:01.94] You've started back doin' the things you used to do
[01:29.63] Maybellene, why can't you be true
[01:33.70] Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
[01:38.43] You've started back doin' the things you used to do
[01:43.34] The motor cooled down the heat went down
[01:44.92] And that's when I heard that highway sound
[01:47.01] The Cadillac asittin' like a ton of lead
[01:49.76] A hundred and ten half a mile aheadv The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
[01:53.09] And I caught Mabellene at the top of the hill
[01:54.99] Maybellene, why can't you be true
[01:59.66] Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
[02:03.22] You've started back doin' the things you used to do
