little maggie

Singer:kingston trio, the

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 going 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

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
