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

A Cadillac doin' about 95
Bumper to bumper,

It done got cloudy and it started to rain

You done started back
doin' the things you used to do

the heat went down
And that's when I heard
that highway sound
Cadillac a -lookin' like a ton of lead
A -hundred and ten a -half a mile ahead
A -cadillac a -lookin' like a set in steel
And I called Maybelline
at the top of the hill

Oh, Maybelline, why can't you be true?
You done started back
doin' the things you used to do
You done started back
doin' the things you used to do
You
