doing the things you used to do

As I was motivating over the hill

I saw Maybelline in a coupe de ville

Cadillac rollin' on an open road

Nothin' I'd run my V8 for

Cadillac doin' about 95

And we was bumpin' and bumpin',

rollin' side by side

Maybelline, why can't you be true?

Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more

Dunn got cloudy and started to rain

Tooted my horn for the passing lane

Rainwater blowin' all under my hood

I knew I was doin' my motor good
