maybelline

chuck berry'nin mükemmel şarkısı

maybelline, why can't you be true
oh maybelline, why can't you be true
you done started back doing the things you used to do

as i was motivating over the hill
i saw maybelline in a coup de ville
a cadillac rolling on the open road
nothing will outrun my V8 ford
the cadillac doing about ninety-five
she's bumper to bumber rolling side by side

maybelline, why can't you be true
oh maybelline, why can't you be true
you done started back doing the things you used to do

the cadillac pulled up ahead of the ford
the ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
it then got cloudy and it started to rain
i tooted my horn for a passing lead
the rain water blowing all under my hood
i knew that was doing my motor good

maybelline, why can't you be true
oh maybelline, why can't you be true
you done started back doing the things you used to do

the motor cooled down, the heat went down
and that's when i heard that highway sound
the cadillac sitting like a ton of lead
a hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
the cadillac looking like it's sitting still
and 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 doing the things you used to do
