you done started doin' the things you used to do
as i was motorvatin' over the hill
i saw maybellene in a coupe de ville
a cadillac a-rollin' on the open road
nothin' will outrun my v8 ford
the cadillac doin' about ninety-five
you done started back doin' the things you used to do
the cadillac pulled up to a hundred and four
the ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
it then got cloudy and started to rain
i tooted my horn for the passin' lane
the rainwater blowin' all under my hood
i know that i was doin' my motor good
you done started back doin' the things you used to do
you done started back doin' the things you used to do
and that's when i heard that highway sound
the cadillac a-sittin' like a ton of lead
a hundred and ten half a mile ahead
the cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
and i caught mabellene at the top of the hill
you done started back doin' the things you used to do
