Maggie May Songtext
von Mathilde Santing

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 what really hurts

The morning sun when it hits 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 could do without


All I needed was a friend to lend me 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 want to be alone
You stole my heart and I couldn't leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
Steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool
Or find myself a rock ′n′ roll band that needs a helping hand
Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face
You made a first class fool out of me
And 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 home one of these days
