Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys
little maggie
Select language to translate this lyric
Oh yonder stands little maggie
with a dram glass in her hands
she's drinking away her troubles
she's a courtin' some other man
Oh how can i ever stand it
just to see them two blue eyes
a shinin in the moonlight
like two diamonds in the sky
Last time a saw little maggie
she was standin' on the banks of the sea
with a forty-four strapped around her
and a banjo on her knee
Lay down your last gold dollar
lay down your gold watch and chain
little maggie's gonna dance for daddy
listen to that old banjo ring
Pretty flowers were made for blooming
pretty stars were made to shine
pretty girls were made for lovin'
little maggie was made for mine
