Lyrics
Maggie Will Make It
Word/Music by Bix Weir
Maggie grew up all alone
Had no money she had no home she had nothing
She grew up fast, she grew up hard
Turned 16 she got a car and she drove away
Won?t be coming back no way
But oh, oh Maggie will make it
Oh, oh Maggie will make it
Oh, oh Maggie will make it
Maggie?s had to make it all along
Maggie found a boy one day
He talked so sweet and they liked to play
And Maggie fell in love
She thought her life would be better now
She?d marry the boy and buy a house somehow
But he ran away, broke her heart that day
But oh, oh Maggie will make it
Oh, oh Maggie will make it
Oh, oh Maggie will make it
Maggie?s had to make it all along
And then one day when she was down and out
Hand full of pills, a head full of doubt
A tear in her eye, cry in her voice
If she came to you could you help Maggie make that choice?
But oh, oh Maggie will make it
Oh, oh Maggie will make it
Oh, oh Maggie will make it
Maggie?s had to make it all along
