Maggie lies under the cold freshly turnin' ground
Everyone's gone but me I'm still around
I hate to go, yes I hate to leave
Maggie might keep me, Maggie might grieve

Goodbye Maggie Maggie goodbye
Goodbye Maggie Maggie goodbye
I miss you so I can't help but cry I love you
So goodbye Maggie Maggie goodbye

My heart is breaking as I walk away
If I could help her now I'd gladly stay
Yes I would gladly take my Maggie's place
If it would bring back her smiling face

Maggie was little she was only four
She'll be afraid to knock at heaven's door
The angels treat her oh so gently and kind
Maggie was cherished Maggie was mine

Goodbye Maggie Maggie goodbye
Goodbye Maggie Maggie goodbye
I miss you so I can't help but cry I love you
So goodbye Maggie Maggie goodbye
