Maggie Walker Blues - Doc Watson[00:00:00]

My parents raised me tenderly[00:00:30]

They had no child but me[00:00:32]

My mind being placed on rambling[00:00:36]

With them I couldn't agree[00:00:38]

Just leave my aged parents[00:00:41]

And them no more to see[00:00:44]

There was a wealthy gentleman[00:00:47]

Who lived there very near by[00:00:49]

He had a beautiful daughter[00:00:53]

On her I cast an eye[00:00:55]

Was so tall and slender[00:00:58]

So pretty and so fair[00:01:00]

There never was a girl[00:01:04]

In this wide world[00:01:05]

With her I could compare[00:01:06]

I asked her if it differed[00:01:09]

I crossed over the plain[00:01:12]

She said[00:01:15]

It makes no difference[00:01:15]

If you never return again[00:01:17]

We too shook hands and parted[00:01:20]

And I left my girl behind[00:01:22]

I started out in this wide world[00:01:31]

Strange faces for to see[00:01:34]

I met little maggie walker[00:01:37]

Fell in love with me[00:01:39]

Her pockets all lined with greenback[00:01:42]

And her labor I'll grow old[00:01:45]

Now if you'll consent to marry me[00:01:48]

I'll say I'll roam no more[00:01:50]

I traveled out one morning[00:01:53]

To the salt works I were bound[00:01:56]

And when I reached the salt works[00:01:59]

I viewed the city all around[00:02:01]

Work and money were plentiful[00:02:05]

Girls all kind to me[00:02:07]

But only object to my heart[00:02:10]

Was a girl in tennessee[00:02:12]

I traveled out one morning[00:02:21]

Down on the market square[00:02:23]

The mail train being on arrival[00:02:26]

I met the carrier there[00:02:28]

He handed me a letter[00:02:32]

So's I could understand[00:02:34]

That the girl I left in tennessee[00:02:37]

Had married another man[00:02:39]

I drove on a down little further[00:02:42]

And found that it was true[00:02:45]

I turned my horse and buggy around[00:02:48]

But I didn't know what to do[00:02:50]

I turned all around and about there[00:02:53]

Bad company I'll resign[00:02:56]

I'll drive all about from town to town[00:02:59]

For the girl I left behind[00:03:01]
