When you've been burned and spurned
And thrown on the ground
It's easy to believe in hell

When you've been beated, and cheated
And pushed all around
It's easy not to feel so well

Then along comes another man
Talkin' like he has a plan
And you can't help wonderin'
What he's come here for

It's for you, Maggie May
It's for you, Maggie May
It's for you, you, you
you you you
You Maggie May

When you've been abused and
You're feeling confused
And you're just about to lose your mind

And you're lookin' for a friend
But the pain never ends
cause trouble is all you find

Then another man comes along
and he hopes you'll listen to his song
cause he knows you're wonderin' what
he wrote it for

It's for you, Maggie May
It's for you, Maggie May
It's for you, Maggie May
It's for you, you, you
you you you
You Maggie May
