Maggie May (with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra)
Wake up Maggie, I think I got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at my 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 my home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart but I love yours anyway
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 led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul but I love you anyway
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 made a first-class fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my soul, but I love you anyway
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 'n' roll band that needs a helping hand
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from my home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's what really hurts
Maggie, I wished I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home, Maggie, one of these days
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, Maggie
It's late September and I really should be back at my 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 my home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart but I love yours anyway
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 led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul but I love you anyway
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 made a first-class fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my soul, but I love you anyway
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 'n' roll band that needs a helping hand
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from my home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's what really hurts
Maggie, I wished I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home, Maggie, one of these days
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, Maggie
