Timid Maggie Mae - Elsinore

She drove up from Tennesse today

The girl I’d know as the timid Maggie Mae

She’d collected in her head

Wrecking balls that I had said to her

With a full tank of gas and a fire on her ass, Maggie Mae

Year ago she took my first name

Took it to a tattoo man in Maine

To have it put on her arm

Where she never saw the harm in it

And now it’s covered with an X

And she’s waiting for the next name to come

And the sun shines upon my head

And it forgives every word I said

Oh, the sun gets me out of bed

To face another day

She collected all the shit she had

That belonged to me and made her feel so bad

Pictures and a shirt or two,

A copy of A Way to Blue (?)

They’d been in a box

It was ready for the drop, Maggie Mae

This had all been boiling for too long (?)

The girl who’d been named for a Rod Stewart song

Was on her way to let the money down (?)

And string me up all over town

But the truth rolls off her tongue,

Like it did when we were young

And the sun shines upon my head

And it forgives every word I said

Oh, the sun gets me out of bed

And the sun shines upon my head

And I regret every word I said

Oh, the sun gets me out of bed
