Maybellene    (GWR 173)  Lorne Clayton

OPENER



Grand Square
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' side by side
Left Allemande back to your own Right & Left Grand
Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Swing and Promenade
You've started back doing the things you used to do
You've started back doing the things you used to do

FIGURE



Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
You've started back doing the things you used to do
You've started back doing the things you used to do

MIDDLE BREAK



Grand Square
The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford, The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more.
It then got cloudy and it started to rain, I tooted my horn for a passin' lane
The rain water blowin' all under my hood, I knew that was doin' my motor good.
Left Allemande back to your own Right & Left Grand
Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Swing and Promenade
You've started back doing the things you used to do
You've started back doing the things you used to do

CLOSER



Grand Square
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 of the hill.
Left Allemande back to your own Right & Left Grand
Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Swing and Promenade
You've started back doing the things you used to do
You've started back doing the things you used to do
