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 and that’s a pain I can do without

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 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

I suppose 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 rock and roll band that needs a helpin’ 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’d never seen your face

I’ll get on back home one of these days
