Maggie May (Live VH1 Storytellers)
[Verse 1]
Wake up, Maggie
I think I got something to say to you
It's late September
I really should be back at school

[Chorus]
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 my home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's what really hurts

[Verse 2]
The morning sun, when it's in your face
Really shows your age
That don't worry me none
In my eyes, you're everything
Aw yeah

[Chorus]
I laughed at all of your jokes
My love you didn't need to coax
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and I love ya anyway
Aw yeah
[Verse 3]
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, yes, you did

[Chorus]
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
'Cause you didn't want to be alone
You stole my heart, and that's what really hurt

[Interlude]
Oh yeah
Bring it on down

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
Or find myself a rock and roll band
That needs a helping hand
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
Stole my soul and that's what really hurts
Oh yeah
Woo!
[Interlude]
Oh yeah

[Outro]
Maggie, I wished I'd never seen your face
Maggie, I wished I'd never seen your face
Oh Maggie, oh Maggie, oh Maggie
Woohoo
Wish I'd never, ever seen your face
