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 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 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 sole that's a pain I can do without
All I needed was 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 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
I suppose I could collect my books and get 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 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
Intro part again
Maggie I wish I've never seen your face
