As I was motivatin' over the hill I saw Maybelline in a Coupe DeVille
Cadillac movin' down an open road nothin' outrunnin' my V-8 Ford
Cadillac doin' bout ninety-five bumper to bumper rollin' side to side
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
Well the Cadillac moved 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 blown all under my hood I knew that were doin' my motor good
Maybelline why can't you be true...
[ guitar ]
Well now the motor cooled down and the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
Cadillac settin' like a ton of lead a hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill
Maybelline why can't you be true...
Conway Twitty, pseudonimo di Harold Lloyd Jenkins (1933-1993), è stato un leggendario cantautore e chitarrista statunitense. Nato in Arkansas, ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '50 come rockabilly, ottenendo successo con il gruppo The Imperials. Nel 1965, dopo una breve parentesi nel country, ha abbracciato lo stile pop-country che lo avrebbe reso famoso. Con un timbro vocale inconfondibile e melodie orecchiabili, Twitty ha dominato le classifiche country per oltre due decenni, vendendo milioni di dischi e ottenendo numerosi premi. Tra i suoi successi più celebri figurano "Hello Darlin'", "It's Only Make Believe" e "Tight Fittin' Jeans". Twitty è considerato uno dei pilastri del country music moderno, la cui influenza si percepisce ancora oggi nelle nuove generazioni di artisti.
