Maggie May lyrics

Wake up, maggie, i think i got some-thing 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 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 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 that`s a pain i can do without.
All i need was a friend to lend a guiding hand.
But you turned into a lover and mother what a lover your 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 lured me away from home, `cause you did`nt 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 myself a rock and 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,
But i`m as blind as a fool can be.
You stole my heart, but i love you anyway.
Maggie, i wish i never seen your face.
I`ll get on back home one of these days.
