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 led me away from home just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
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 but I love you anyway
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 made a first-class fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my soul but I love you anyway
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 could never try any more
You led me away from my home,
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's what really hurts
Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home, Maggie, one of these days
Oh Maggie
