Wake up, Maggie, I think I got something to say to you.
Its late September, and I really should be back at school.
I know I keep you amused, but I feel Im being used.
Oh Maggie, I couldnt have tried any more.
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone.
You stole my heart, and thats what really hurts.
The morning sun when its in your face really shows your age,
But that dont worry me none. In my eyes youre everything.
I laughed at all of your jokes my love, you didnt need to coax.
Oh Maggie, I couldnt have tried any more.
You led me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
You stole my soul, and thats 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 couldnt have tried anymore.
You led me away from home cause you didnt want to be alone
You stole my heart. I couldnt leave you if I tried.
I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school,
Or steal my daddys 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 Id never seen your face.
You made a first-class fool out of me,
But Im as blind as a fool can be.
You stole my heart, but I love you anyway.
Maggie, I wish Id never seen your face.
Ill get on back home one of these days.
