Well now, who is that yonder comin' up the, comin' coming up the road?
Yeah, who is that yonder comin' up the road?
Well, it looks like maggie, but she walking just too, slow
Well now, the woman I love, she got great long curly, great long curly hair
Yeah, the woman I love, she got great long curly hair
And I know my maggie when I see her standing there
Now, the sun's gonna shine on my back door some, my back door some day
Yeah, the sun's gonna shine on my back door some day
Well now, I'll know my little maggie when I see her comin' my way
Now, when my maggie smiles, it's like lightnin' in the, lightnin' in the sky
Yeah, when my maggie smiles, it's like lightnin' in the sky
But my tears fell like rain when my maggie said good-bye
Now, I'm goin' away, baby, won't be back 'till, won't be back 'till fall
Yes, I'm goin' away baby and I won't be back 'till fall
But if I find my maggie, ya know I won't be back at, won't be back at
Won't be back at all
