Mama stood on the front porch ringin' her hands |
|
Watched the tail lights fadin' on his black tranzam |
|
With her precious little baby taking off inside |
|
Staring at him with stars in her eyes |
|
She tried to tell her but the girl |
|
might as well have been deaf |
|
She wasn't gonna listen to a word she said |
|
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
With a boy lookin' like that |
|
He'll tell ya thangs that you wanna hear |
|
And they'll be no turnin' back |
|
There's an oak tree down by the lake |
|
In the shade where the wild flowers grow |
|
What'll happen only heaven knows |
|
So don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
Was a still black night as dark is cold |
|
Nobody heard her when she said no |
|
She kicked and screamed and got free somehow |
|
Tore her dress on the door when he pushed her out |
|
She walked 13 miles on the gravel road |
|
With tears in her eyes 20 years ago |
|
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
With a boy lookin' like that |
|
He'll tell ya thangs that you wanna hear |
|
And they'll be no turnin' back |
|
There's an oak tree down by the lake |
|
In the shade where the wild flowers grow |
|
What'll happen only heaven knows |
|
So don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
Somehow mama's always know |
|
Cause they shoulda been home an hour ago |
|
When she pulled up it was just going down |
|
She turned her headlights off didn't make a sound |
|
She heard her baby crying no but he wouldn't stop |
|
Her heart went cold and her blood ran hot |
|
With a pistol in her hand she opened his door |
|
You don't wanna see mama go to war |
|
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
With a boy lookin' like that |
|
He'll tell ya thangs that you wanna hear |
|
And they'll be no turnin' back |
|
There's an oak tree down by the lake |
|
In the shade where the wild flowers grow |
|
What'll happen only heaven knows |
|
So don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road |
|
Maggie Creek Road |
