Chorus:
Maybelline, why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline , why can't you be true

Verse 1:
As I was motivatin' over the hill

Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac doin' about ninety five

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

I tooted my horn for the passin' lane
The rain water blowin' all under my hood
I know that I was 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

And that's when I heard that highway sound
The Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
And 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 done started back doin' the things you used to do
You done started back doin' the things you used to do

Cryin' Time
(B. Owens)
Verse 1:
Well they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
That tears are only rain to make love grow
Well my love for you could never grow no stronger
If I lived to be a hundred years old
Chorus:
Well it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me
I can tell by the far away look in your eye
and I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'
that it won't be long before it's cryin' time
SOLO
Verse 2:
Now you say you've found someone that you love better
and that's just the way it's happened every time before
And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow
cryin' time will start when you walk out the door
Chorus:
Oh, it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me
I can tell by that far away look in your eyes
and I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'
That it won't be long before it's cryin' time
And cryin' time begins when you walk out the door
