Maggies Song Lyrics
Let me tell you a story
About an old friend of mine
Somebody left her in a shopping cart
In a parking lot for us to find
…………….*……………
Just a fuzzy black pup
She was hungry and feeling alone
We put her in the back seat
Told her we were taking her home
…………….*……………
Run, Maggie, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie, run
Be just as free as you are wild
…………….*……………
A few kids later
We moved out on the farm
And she followed those kids around
Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
…………….*……………
And she loved to chase squirrels
And playing out in the snow
She’d take off like a bullet
Man, you should have seen her go
…………….*……………
Run, Maggie, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie, run
Be just as free as you are wild
…………….*……………
It was raining on a Monday
The day that Maggie died
She woke up and couldn’t use her legs
So I laid down by her side
…………….*……………
She put her head on my hand
Like she’d done so many times
I told her she was a good dog
Then I told her goodbye
…………….*……………
Run, Maggie, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie, run
Be just as free as you are wild
…………….*……………
I had a revelation
As the tractor dug a hole
I can tell you right now
That a dog has a soul
…………….*……………
And I thought to myself
As we buried her on the hill
I never knew me a better dog
And I guess I never will
…………….*……………
Run, Maggie, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie, run
Be just as free as you are wild
…………….*……………
Oh, run, Maggie, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie, run
Be just as free as you are wild
