I was drifting along on any old breeze
Rolling around like a tumble weed
Down in Texas about as low as I could go
When I landed at the feet of Miss Maggie Rose
Can't say why she took a shine to me
A rough and rowdy cowboy in faded jeans
She put an end to an endless road
Now I cherish the heart of Miss Maggie Rose
(chs)
A lovelier flower I have never seen
She answered prayers and gave truth to dreams
A magical moment only lovers know
When I was picked by the hand of Miss Maggie Rose
As our love grows it's one for all time
Shakespeare could have used us in one of his rhymes
An eternal fire that will always glow
About a simple man's love for Miss Maggie Rose
