Kodachrome/Maybellene - 5:51

When I think back on all the crap I've learned in highschool
It's a wonder I can think at all
Though my lack of education hasn't hurt me much
I can read the writings on the walls

Kodachrome, they give us those nice bright colours
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nicon 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
Brought 'em all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks better in black and white

Kodachrome, they give us those nice bright colours
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nicon camera, I love to take a photograph
So 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 away

Mama don't take my Kodachrome, mama don't take my Kodachrome
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome and leave your boy so far from home
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome, whew whew, mama don't take my Kodachrome away


Maybellene


(Oh) Mabellene, why can't you be true, whoah Mabellene, why can't you be true
You're not startin' right, doin' those things you used to do

As I was motivatin' over the hill, I was Mabellene in a coup Deville
Cadillac roarin' at the open road, yeah but nothin' but a racecar bein' fold
Cadillac doin' by 95, oh mama and papa in side to side

(Oh) Mabellene, why can't you be true, whoah Mabellene, why can't you be true
You're not startin' right, doin' those things you used to do

He cooled down, the motor cooled down
That's when I'd heard that highway sound
I kept back sittin' like a ton of leather
Got a hundert and ten a half mile ahead
Cadillac lookin' like it's standin' still
And I caught Mabellene at the top of the hill

(Oh) Mabellene, why can't you be true, whoah Mabellene, why can't you be true
You're not startin' right, doin' those things you used to do


(Oh) Mabellene, why can't you be true, whoah Mabellene, why can't you be true
You're not startin' right, doin' those things you used to do

You're not startin' right, doin' those things you used to do
You're not startin' right, doin' those things you used to do
