Maybellene
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true,
D
A
oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true ?
E D A
You've started back doin' the things you used to do.
1. As I was motivatin' over the hill,
I saw
Maybellene in a Coupe de Ville
Cadillac
rollin' on the open road.
Nothin'
outruns my V-8 Ford,
Cadillac doin' 'bout 95,
bumper-to-bumper, rollin'
side by side. + CHORUS
2. Cadillac rolled up ahead of the Ford,
the Ford
got hot, wouldn't do no more.
It soon
got cloudy and it started to rain,
I tooted
my horn for the passing lane,
rain was
pourin' under my hood,
I knew
that was doin' my motor good. +
CHORUS
3. Motor cooled down, the heat went down,
that's
when I heard that highway sound.
The
Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead,
110 half a mile ahead.
The
Cadillac looked like it was sittin' still,
I caught
Maybellene at the top of the hill. +
CHORUS
