Lucero - The Devil And Maggie Chascarillo Lyrics

Cops shut down a show at Mad Dogs' last Friday night

Maggie slipped Daphne out the alley door just in time

Flagged a ride in Doyle's truck

Ray was driving, what a piece of luck

Back to the apartment, put on Pleased to Meet Me, valentine



Love and Rockets won't you please

Maggie and the Devil, California streets

And Maggie the mechanic, punk rock girl, lonely saint

Oh who would have thought it was gonna turn out this way?



Now Izzy was a widow long before she went down to Mexico

And Hopey was the other half, knew everything that Ray didn't know

Tear it up Miss Terry Downe

Doyle's sleeping by the railroad tracks

It gets tough when the past and the present are so close



Love and Rockets won't you please

Maggie and the Devil, California streets

And Maggie the mechanic, punk rock girl, lonely saint

Oh who would have thought it was gonna turn out this way?



And Maggie says don't mind me, I'm just another graveyard ghost

Oh Maggie, oh Maggie, don't you know?



And I was just a kid, a long way from home

Looking for something, I felt all alone

Some kids are grown up, some kids are gone

Maggie just needed a song



Love and Rockets won't you please

Maggie and the Devil, California streets

And Maggie the mechanic, punk rock girl, lonely saint

Oh who would have thought it was gonna turn out this way?



And Maggie says don't mind me, I'm just another graveyard ghost

Oh Maggie, oh Maggie, don't you know?
