I Never See Maggie Alone
Maggie dear, just won't go out alone,
Seems that she must have a chaperone,
When we go out no matter where we're bound
There's always somebody around.
She brings her father, her mother, her sister and her brother,
Oh! I never see Maggie alone.
She brings her uncles and cousins, she's got ‘em by the dozens,
I never see Maggie alone.
And if I phone her, say to her "Sweet,
Where shall we meet, supposin' that we eat,"
She brings her father, her mother, her sister and her brother,
Oh! I never see Maggie alone.
She brings her father, her mother, her sister and her brother,
Oh! I never see Maggie alone.
One night when we were out walking and she got tired of talking,
She invited me up to her home.
I turned the lights down, they were too bright,
Oh! What a sight when I turned on the light,
There was her father, her mother, her sister, and her brother
Oh! I never see Maggie alone.
I bought a roadster, two-seated, I even had it heated,
So that I could see Maggie alone,
While we were riding, and kissing, the engine started missing,
And we were a long way from home.
I got right out and then fast as I could,
Found what was wrong, for when I raised the hood,
There was her father, her mother, her sister and her brother,
Oh! I never see Maggie alone.
One day she said she was wishing that I could take her fishing,
So I knew I'd see Maggie alone.
In the canoe there we two, there went gliding o'er the water,
Far from the noise of her home.
I threw the line in, thought I'd catch a trout.
I'd got a bite and pulled the line right out,
There was her father, her mother, her sister and her brother,
Oh! I never see Maggie alone.
Nunca veo a Maggie sola
Maggie querida, no saldrás sola
Parece que debe tener un chaperone
Cuando salgamos, no importa donde estemos destinados
Siempre hay alguien alrededor
Ella trae a su padre, a su madre, a su hermana y a su hermano
¡Oh! Nunca veo a Maggie sola
Trae a sus tíos y primos, los tiene por los dozens
Nunca veo a Maggie sola
Y si la telefono, le digo: «Dulce
¿Dónde nos encontraremos, suponiendo que comamos?
Ella trae a su padre, a su madre, a su hermana y a su hermano
¡Oh! Nunca veo a Maggie sola
Ella trae a su padre, a su madre, a su hermana y a su hermano
¡Oh! Nunca veo a Maggie sola
Una noche cuando estábamos caminando y ella se cansó de hablar
Me invitó a su casa
Apagé las luces, eran demasiado brillantes
¡Oh! Qué espectáculo cuando encendí la luz
Estaba su padre, su madre, su hermana y su hermano
¡Oh! Nunca veo a Maggie sola
Compré un roadster, dos asientos, incluso lo calenté
Para que pudiera ver a Maggie sola
Mientras estábamos montando, y besándonos, el motor empezó a faltar
Y estábamos muy lejos de casa
Salí y luego lo más rápido que pude
Encontré lo que estaba mal, porque cuando levanté el capó
Estaba su padre, su madre, su hermana y su hermano
¡Oh! Nunca veo a Maggie sola
Un día dijo que deseaba que yo pudiera pescarla
Así que sabía que vería a Maggie sola
En la canoa allí nosotros dos, allí fuimos deslizándose sobre el agua
Lejos del ruido de su casa
Tiré la línea, pensé en atrapar una trucha
Había mordido y tirado la línea de inmediato
Estaba su padre, su madre, su hermana y su hermano
¡Oh! Nunca veo a Maggie sola
