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 an 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...      Well the Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford   The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more   It done got cloudy and 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...   [ piano - guitar ]   Well the motor cooled down the heat went down and   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 Maybelline Maybelline Maybelline...
