Verse 2

As I was motivatin' over the hill

I saw Maybellene in a coup de ville.

A Cadillac a- rollin' on

the open road,

Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford.

The Cadillac doin' 'bout ninety- five,

She's bumper to bumper rollin'

Pink in the mirror on top of the hill,
It's just like swallowin'

First thing I saw that Cadillac grille
C 
Doin' a hundred and ten gallopin' over
that hill.
Offhill curve, a downhill stretch,
G 
Me and that Cadillac neck by neck.

G 
The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford,
The Ford got hot and wouldn't

It then got clody and it started to rain,
I tooted my horn for a passin' lead
The rain water blowin' all
under my hood,
I knew that was doin' my motor

Verse 8
G 
The motor cooled down,
the heat went down
And that's when I heard that
highway sound.
The Cadillac a- 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 Maybellene at the top
