Kodachrome / Mabellene |
| When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school, |
| It’s a wonder I can think at all. |
| Well my lack of education hasn’t hurt me much, |
| I can read the writing on the wall. |
| Kodachro-o-ome! |
| Give us those nice, bright colors, |
| Give us the greens of summer. |
| Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day, oh yeah. |
| I got a Nikon camera. |
| I love to take the photographs. |
| 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 they’d never match my sweet imagination. |
| Everything looks better in black and white. |
| Kodachro-o-ome! |
| Give us those nice, bright colors. |
| Give us the greens of summer. |
| Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day, oh yeah! |
| I got a Nikon 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, woo woo, Mama don’t take my kodachrome away! |
| Oh, Mabellene! |
| Why can’t you be true? |
| Woah, Mabellene. |
| Why can’t you be true? |
| You’ve started back doin' those things you used to do. |
| As I was motivatin' on over the hill, I saw Mabellene in a Coupe de Ville. |
| A cadillac rollin' on the open road, |
| yeah but nothin' will outrace my V8 Ford. |
| The Cadillac doin' about 95, she’s bumper to bumper, rollin' side to side. |
| Mabellene! |
| Why can’t you be true? |
| Woah, Mabellene! |
| Yeah, you’ve started back doin' those things you used to do. |
| The heat cools down and the motor cools down, and that’s when I heard that |
| highway sound. |
| The Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead, |
| a hundred and ten half a mile ahead. |
| The Cadillac a lookin' like it’s sittin' still, |
| and I caught Mabellene at the top of the hill. |
| Mabellene! |
| Why can’t you be true? |
| Woah, Mabellene! |
| Why can’t you be true? |
| You’ve started back doin' those things you used to do. |
| Woah, Mabellene! |
| Can’t you be true? |
| Woah, Mabellene! |
| Why can’t you be true? |
| You’ve started back doin' those things you used to do, yeah. |
| You’ve started back doin' those things you used to do. |
| You’ve started back doin' those things you used to do! |
