[C]
Oh, Maybelline, why can't you be true?
Oh, Maybelline, why can't you be true?
And I started out of doing them things you used to do.
As I was a-motivatin' over the hill,
Saw Maybelline in the coop to build.
Cattle like a bull on an open road,
And nothin' outrun her, my V.A. course.
Cattle like a bull about ninety-five,
A buckle-toe bumper and a side-by-side.
Oh, Maybelline, why can't you be true?

Well, the cattle like a bull to [Cm] a hundred and four,
And the foals got hot, I wouldn't do no more.
The sun got cloudy and it started to rain,
And it took my whore from the passin' lane.
[D] Rainwater blowin' all over [C] my hood,
And nothin' to do with my motor.
Oh, Maybelline, why can't you be true?

And I started [G] out of doing them things [C] you used to do.
[G]
[C] Well, the motor cooled down and the heat went down,
And that's when I heard that highway sound.
Cattle like a tunnel head,
A hundred and fifty, ten a mile ahead.
Cattle like a little light set,
And still that'll call to Maybelline,
At the top of the hill of Maybelline.
Why can't you be true?
[F] Why can't you [C] be true?
And I started out of doing them things you used to do.
