Maggie May

Oh Maggie May
Maggie May
Oh lord
Oh lord

Wake up Maggie
I think I got something to say to you
Well it's late September
And I really should be back in school
I know that I keep you amused
But I feel I'm being used
Oh Maggie I shouldn't have tried anymore

You lured me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart
And that's what really hurt
Hey

The morning sun when it's in your face
Show your age, no
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 mean to coax
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore

You lured me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart
That's a pain I can do without
Oh lord

All I needed was a friend
To lend a guiding hand
But you turned into a lover and a mother
What's a lover?
You wore me out, you tear me down
All you did was wreck my bed
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
No, no

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 reggae band
That needs a little helping hand
Oh Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face
You made a fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart

But I love you anyway
Hey

Stole my heart
But I love you anyway

Wake up Maggie
Maggie May

Yeah
Wake up May
Ay ay ay
Wake up Maggie
Maggie May

All you did was steal my love
And you wrecked my bed
And you kicked me
And you kicked me in the head
Wake up Maggie
