| Wake up Maggie, I think I got something to say to you
|
| It’s late September and I really should be back at school
|
| I know I keep you amused but I feel I’m being used
|
| Oh Maggie, I couldn’t have tried any more
|
| You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
|
| You stole my heart and that’s what really hurt
|
| The morning sun when it’s in your face really shows your age
|
| But that don’t worry me none in my eyes you’re everything
|
| I laughed at all of your jokes my love you didn’t need to coax
|
| Oh Maggie, I couldn’t have tried any more
|
| You led me away from home, just to save you from being alone
|
| You stole my soul and that’s a pain I can do without
|
| All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
|
| But you turned into a lover and
|
| mother what a lover, you wore me out
|
| All you did was wreck my bed
|
| and in the morning kick me in the head
|
| Oh Maggie, I couldn’t have tried anymore
|
| You led me away from home 'cause you didn’t want to be alone
|
| You stole my heart, I couldn’t leave you if I tried
|
| I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
|
| Or steal my daddy’s cue and make a living out of playing pool
|
| Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helpin' hand
|
| Oh Maggie, I wish I’d never seen your face
|
| You made a first-class fool out of me But I’m as blind as a fool can be You stole my heart but I love you anyway
|
| Maggie, I wish I’d never seen your face
|
| I’ll get on back home one of these days |
