Sandi Thom - Maggie McCall lyrics

I knew a girl named Maggie McCall All her life she was ready to fall She was a hard lost shadow on the wall She said she had an ice cold heart But when it was young it was torn apart By a mean old son of a b**h Oh and how it changed her Lost forever…and now She's one foot in the grave She stole a car up in Tucson She crossed the borderline They caught her up in Oklahoma Now she's doing time She's doing time The night he drove her to the edge She found her grip but lost her head She'd been held down beaten black and blue He walked with fury and lived with sin He's done it before and he'll do it again She knew exactly what to do And like a cloud that has no silver lining The thunder never ever gives in She stole a car up in Tucson Now she crossed the line They caught her up in Oklahoma Now she's paying for her crime She got the chair up in Tucson Not a tear was cried The good will always fall Here lies Maggie McCall Everyone thought that she k**ed that man They didn't need to see the blood on her hands As sure as the red sun will fall It didn't take the judge too much time He read out the verdict and looked her in the eye And what he saw spread fear across his soul And now she's 6 feet under They say you can hear the wind Howl her name… She stole a car up in Tucson She crossed the borderline They caught her up in Oklahoma Now she's paying for her crime She got the chair up in Tucson Not a tear was cried You know its written on the wall Here lies Maggie McCall She's just a shadow in the wall Here lies Maggie McCall Oh the good will always fall So here lies Maggie McCall
