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 lured me away from home
just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts
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 ev'rything
I laughed at all of your jokes
my love you didn't need to coax

oh
Maggie
I couldn't have tried anymore
You lured me away from home
just to save you from being alone
You stole my soule
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 lured 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 back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool
Or find myselfe a rock and roll band that needs a helpin' hand
Oh
Maggie
I wish I'd never seen your face
You lured me away from home
just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts
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 ev'rything
I laughed at all of your jokes
my love you didn't need to coax

oh
Maggie
I couldn't have tried any 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
