"Maggie May" 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 school
I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore

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

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
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 led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart
I couldn't leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and go back to school
I'll steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool
I'll find myself a rock 'n' roll band that needs a helping hand
Oh, Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face

You made a first class fool of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart
But I love you anyway
