Maggie said
Dig one more shallow grave before I'm dead
ย
Maggie said
I'm just lookin' for a place that I can lay my weary head
ย
There's no perfect end
Just time to leave
ย
Maggie said
They wreck the table at the game of love
ย
Maggie said
It's just stupid luck if you rise above
Everybody's second in death
Win or lose, my friend
It's so hard to leave
ย
Holdin' back
What did I get for all of that?
What did it count for?
Tell me that
Nothin'
Nothin'
Oh, nothin', that's a fact
ย
Maggie said
It's so hard to find the Golden Fleece to spin my golden thread
ย
Maggie said
You're preachin' to the choir, girl, now
You're not stickin' out your neck
There's no risk in that
Darlin', please
ย
Holdin' back
What did I get for all of that?
What did it count for?
Tell me that
ย
Tell me that
Nothin'
ย
Nothin'
Nothin', that's a fact
Maggie said
Don't let them take that halo from your head
ย
Maggie said
I can see you're turning hard now, girl
Don't lose your tenderness
What's the use in that?
Darlin', please
ย
Holdin' back
ย
What did I get for all of that?
ย
What did it count for?
Tell me that
ย
Count for?
Tell me that
Nothin'
ย
Nothin'
ย
Nothin'
Oh, nothin', that's a fact
