The Kingston Trio - Little Maggie lyrics

rate me

Oh, well, yonder stands little Maggie

With a dram glass in her hand

She drinkin' away her troubles, oh, Lord

And foolin' another man

How could I ever stand it

Just to see them two blue eyes?

They shine just like the diamonds

Like the diamonds in the sky

Pretty flowers were made for bloomin'

Pretty stars were made to shine

Pretty girls were made for boys to love

Surely Maggie was made for mine

Oh, well, yonder stands little Maggie

With a dram glass in her hand

She drinkin' away her troubles, oh, Lord

And foolin' another man

Well, they marched me down to the station

With my suitcase in my hand

I'm goin' away for to leave you, my love

Goin' to a far distant land

Oh, well, sometimes I have a nickel

And sometimes I have a dime

And sometimes I have ten dollars, oh, Lord

Just to pay little Maggie's fine

Oh, well, yonder stands little Maggie

With a dram glass in her hand

She drinkin' away her troubles, oh, Lord

And foolin' another man

And foolin' another man
