Maybellene Lyrics


Conway Twitty Maybellene


As I was motivatin' over the hill

I saw Maybelline in a Coupe DeVille

Cadillac movin' down an open road

Nothin' outrunnin' my V-8 Ford

Cadillac doin' bout 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 done started back

Doin' the things you used to do.



--- Instrumental ---



Well, the Cadillac moved 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 blown all under my 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 done started back

Doin' the things you used to do.



--- Instrumental ---



Well, now the motor cooled down

and the heat went down

And that's when I heard that highway sound

Cadillac settin' 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 done started back

Doin' the things you used to do...
