Just playing with this song but any musician/songwriters out there have any suggestions on improving it...let me know.

 

G

Maggie was a wayward hippie girl

C D

On a borrowed boat by the river

G

She never asked for any thing

C G

She just took what life would give her

D

Maggie slept at night on a sailing boat

C G

To the water’s gentle rocking

D

But every day she hauled her butt

C G

She rode a bike instead of walking

 

 

Jimmy Mack was a Canuck hobo

C D

Who hitchhiked too far from home

G

Landed up where the snows don’t fall

C G

Down south where hobos roam

D

Jimmy never had a penny to his name

C G

When Maggie geared down her bike

D

She smiled and said come on stranger

C G

I’ll ride you double if you like

 

They rode all day into the sunset

C D

with Jimmy’s arms around her waist

G

When she parked beside that sailboat

C G

He said girl you got great taste

D

They made love all through that night

C D

In her borrowed boat down on the river

G

Maggie had her first taste of love

C G

And wanted all that he could give her

 

Now thirty years have come and gone

C D

They raised a few kids of their own

G

Maggie the wayward hippie girl

C G

And Jimmy Mack so far from home

D

Now and then they walk along the river

C D

Smile when they hear a Harley roar

G

They made a life out of that first love

C G

Who could ask for any more,,,

Who could ask for anymore…

Who could ask for anymore…

Hippies and hobos, kindred souls separated chronologically, not philosophically. Top forty do you think Felix? Wish I could help you but lyrics and music I cannot write my friend. Besides that, I would not know how to make any improvements. May your song be sung loudly every day. Jon Michael
