Oh Maggie, Maggie May, they have taken her away
And she'll never walk down Lime Street anymore
Well that Jud she killed and found her
Robbin' the home ward bounder
You dirty robbin' no-good Maggie May
Now I was paid off at the pool
In the port of Liverpool
Well three pound ten a week, that was my pay
With a bucket full of tin
I was very soon taken in
By a gal with the name of Maggie May
Now the first time I saw Maggie, she took my breath away
She was cruisin' up and down in Cannon Place
She had a figure so divine, her voice was so refined
Well being a sailor I gave chase
Now in the morning I awoke
I was flat and stoney broke
No jacket, trousers, waistcoat did I find
Oh and when I asked her where
She said "My very dear sir
They're down in Kelly's pawnshop number nine"
To the pawnshop I did go
No clothes there did I find
And the police they took that gal away from me
And the judge he killed and found her
For robbin' the home ward bounder
She'll never walk down Lime Street anymore
Oh Maggie, Maggie May, they have taken her away
And she'll never walk down Lime Street anymore
Well that Jud she killed and found her
For robbin' the home ward bounder
You dirty robbin' no-good Maggie May
