Maggie May Lyrics

Wake up Maggie I think I've 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 a pain I could do without
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 any more You led me away from home 'Cause you didn't wanna be alone You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried
Now I suppose I could collect my books Get on back to school Or steal my daddy's cue And make a living playing pool Or find myself a rock and roll band That needs a helpin' hand
Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore You made a first class fool out of me I'm as blind as a fool can be You stole my heart But I love you anyway
Maggie, I wished I'd never seen your face Yeah I'll get on back home one of these days Yeah
