Oh, where is little Maggie ? |
|
Over yonder she stands |
|
Rifle on her shoulder |
|
Six-shooter in her hand. |
|
How can I ever stand it |
|
Just to see them two blue eyes |
|
Shinin' like some diamonds |
|
Like some diamonds in the sky. |
|
Rather be in some lonely hollow |
|
Where the sun don't ever shine |
|
Than to see you be another man's darling |
|
And to know that you'll never be mine. |
|
Well, it's march me away to the station |
|
With my suitcase in my hand |
|
Yes, march me away to the station |
|
I'm off to some far-distant land. |
|
Sometimes I have a nickel |
|
And sometimes I have a dime |
|
Sometimes I have ten dollars |
|
Just to pay for little Maggie's wine. |
|
Pretty flowers are made for blooming |
|
Pretty stars are made to shine |
|
Pretty girls are made for boy's love |
|
Little Maggie was made for mine. |
|
Well, yonder stands little Maggie |
|
With a dram glass in her hand |
|
She's a-drinkin' down her troubles |
|
Over courtin' some other man. |
