Sweet Magdeline (LP Version) - Will Hoge

Here we sit again and tales begin to spin

About the things that we've done and seen

Stories of wine glutton and glory

And the occasional altered dreams

Appetites for memories grow

As the sunshine begins to fade

Across the hill it's the same old chill

Lurking right there in the shade

Just a child with bright eyes and a smile

Laughter was all she knew

Her mama was away and all papa did was pray

So the wanderlust slowly grew

She spread her wings and a couple other things

For the medicine man downtown

With his bottle of elixir he said that he would fix her

And soon she was going down

And everyone begins to look the same

Feel the burn from the same old evil flame

We watched her fall from sweet and kind

And I wish she could come back sweet Magdeline

She was gone on a bad trip

Followed by a needle and a silver spoon

Mama sat and cried and papa told us lies

Said she'd be back real soon

Suddenly the seasons changed

From the fall back to the spring

Answers live like peasants here

When the questions reign as king

And everyone begins to look the same

Feel the burn from the same old evil flame

We watched her fall from sweet and kind

And I wish she could come back sweet Magdeline

Just a child with bright eyes and a smile

Laughter was all she knew

Mama was away and papa sat and prayed

While the wanderlust that slowly grew

She spread her wings and wanted to do things

For the medicine man downtown

And with his bottle of elixir he said

That he would fix her

And soon she was soon she was going down yeah

And everyone begins to look the same

Feel the burn from the same old evil flame

We watched her fall from sweet and kind

And I wish she could come back

And I will really do is wish she come back

I wish she could come back sweet Magdeline
