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 any more
You lured me away from home
just to save you from
being alone
You stole my heart
and that's what really hurt
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 lured 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 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
<Interlude>
I suppose I could collect my
books and get on back to school
Or steal my daddy's 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
I'd never seen your 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
<Interlude>
Maggie I wish I'd
never seen your face
I'll get on back
home one of these days
