Lyrics

Wake up, Maggie
I think I've got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at my 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 my home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart
But I love you's 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
Any more
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
Make a living out of playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band
That needs a helpin' hand
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried
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 wished I'd never seen your face
I'll get on home, Maggie, one of these days
Ooh-hoo, ooh
Oh, Maggie
Here's one of every picture tells a story
And we haven't done this together since we recorded it
22 years ago, most of the band went bald (thank you, darling)
My wife was only one
Here we go
