[Dixielandjazz] Panic - Lryics to Maggie, anyone?

[Steve Marcus]

When You and I Were Young, Maggie

 

Music by James Butterfield

Lyrics by George Johnson



I wandered today to the hill, Maggie

To watch the scene below

The creek and the rusty old mill, Maggie

Where we sat in the long, long ago.

The green grove is gone from the hill, Maggie

Where first the daisies sprung

The old rusty mill is still, Maggie

Since you and I were young.



A city so silent and lone, Maggie

Where the young and the gay and the best

In polished white mansion of stone, Maggie

Have each found a place of rest

Is built where the birds used to play, Maggie

And join in the songs that were sung

For we sang just as gay as they, Maggie

When you and I were young.



They say I am feeble with age, Maggie

My steps are less sprightly than then

My face is a well written page, Maggie

But time alone was the pen.

They say we are aged and grey, Maggie

As spray by the white breakers flung

But to me you're as fair as you were, Maggie

When you and I were young.



And now we are aged and grey, Maggie

The trials of life nearly done

Let us sing of the days that are gone, Maggie

When you and I were young.

Steve Marcus, tuba

Happy Saint Pats to everyone.
