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 anymore
You led me away from home, just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that’s what really hurts.

The mornin sun when it’s in your face really shows your age
But that don’t worry me darling, I is your everything
I laughed at part of your jokes, my love you didn’t need to cokes
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
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 wet 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.
~Solo~
I suppose I could collect my books and head on back to school
Or steel my daddy’s queue and make a living out of playing pool
Or find myself a rock’n’roll band; don’t need your helping hand
Oh Maggie I wish I’d never seen your face
You made a first class fool out of me
But I was blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart but I love you anyway.
~Solo picking~
Oh Maggie I wish I’d never seen your face
(Picking) opp.
I’ll get on back home, one of these days ~Fade out~
