Verse 1:
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 led me away from home just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts
Verse 2:
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 led me away from home just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul that's a pain I can do without
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
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 led me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried

Verse 4:
I suppose I should 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

Maggie, I wish I’d never seen your face
I’ll get on back home, one of these days
