[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Wake up Maggie
I think I've
got something
to say to you
It's late Sept
ember and I re
ally should be
back at schoo
l
I know I keep
you amused But
I feel I'm be
ing used
Oh Maggie I co
uldn’t have tr
ied any more
You led me awa
y from home ju
st to save you
from being al
one
You stole my h
eart, and that
's what really
hurts
[Verse 2]
The morning su
n when it's in
your face rea
lly shows your
age
But that don't
worry me none
, in my eyes y
ou're everythi
ng
I laughed at a
ll your jokes,
my love you d
idn't need to
coax
Oh Maggie I co
uldn’t have tr
ied any more
You led me awa
y from home ju
st to save you
from being al
one
You stole my s
oul that's a p
ain I can do w
ithout
[Verse 3]
All I needed w
as a friend to
lend a guidin
g hand
But you turned
into a lover
and mother wha
t a lover you
wore me out
All you did wa
s wreck my bed
And in the mo
rning kick me
in the head
Oh Maggie I co
uldn’t have tr
ied any more
You led me awa
y from home 'c
ause you didn'
t want to be a
lone
You stole my h
eart I couldn'
t leave you if
I tried
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
I suppose I co
uld collect my
books and get
on back to sc
hool
Or steal my da
ddy's cue and
make a living
out of playing
pool
Or find myself
a rock and ro
ll band that n
eeds a helping
hand
Oh Maggie, I w
ish I'd never
seen your face
You made a fir
st class fool
out of me, but
I'm as blind
as a fool can
be
You stole my h
eart but I lov
e you anyway
[Guitar Solo]
[Mandolin Solo]
[Outro]
Maggie, I wish
I’d never see
n your face
I’ll get on b
ack home, one
of these days
(fade out)
