When I think back
On all the crap
I learned in high school
Its a wonder
I can think at all
And though my lack of education
Hasnt hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall
Kodachrome
They give us those
nice bright colors
They give us the
greens of summers
Makes you think all the
worlds a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take
my kodachrome away
If you took all the girls
I knew When I was single
And brought them all
together for one night
I know theyd never match
My sweet imagination
And everything looks
worse in black and white
Kodachrome
They give us those
nice bright colors
They give us the
greens of summers
Makes you think all the
worlds a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama dont take my
kodachrome away
mama don't take my
kodachrome away
mama don't take my
kodachrome away
mama don't take my
kodachrome away
mama don't take my kodachrome
mama don't take my kodachrome
mama don't take my kodachrome
mama don't take my kodachrome
mama don't take my kodachrome
mama don't take my kodachrome
mama don't take my kodachrome
Maybellene
why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene
why can't you be true
You've started back
doing the things you used to do
As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybellene
in a coup de ville
A Cadillac arollin
on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The cadillac doin
bout ninety five
She's bumper to bumber
rollin' side by side
Maybellene
why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene
why can't you be true
You've started back
doing the things you used to do
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 Mabellene
at the top of the hill
Maybellene
why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene
why can't you be true
You've started back
doing the things you used to do
Oh Maybellene
why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene
why can't you be true
You've started back
doing the things you used to do
You've started back
doing the things you used to do
You've started back
doing the things you used to do
