Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

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

The morning sun when it's in your
eyes 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 and that's a pain I can do without

All I needed was a friend to lend
a helping 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

I suppose I could collect my books
and go on back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a
living at playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band
That needs a helping hand
Oh Maggie, I wished 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
I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home, one of these days
