MAYBELLINE As recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis (From the 1965 Album THE RETURN OF ROCK) [Intro] [Chorus] Oh 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 [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Piano Solo] [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Well the motor cooled down the heat went down and And that’s when I heard that highway sound Cadillac lookin’ like ton of lead hundred and ten half mile ahead Cadillac lookin’ like it’s sittin’ still I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill [Chorus] 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 [Outro] Oh Maybelline Maybelline Maybelline Maybelline
