Karaoké Maggie's Song Chris Stapleton

Let me tell you a story about an old friend of mine

Somebody left her in a shopping cart in a parking lot for us to find

Just a fuzzy black pup

She was hungry and feelin' alone

We put her in the back seat

Told her we were takin' her home

Run Maggie run

With the heart of a rebel child

Oh run Maggie run

Be just as free as you are wild

A few kids later we moved out on the farm

And she followed those kids around

Yeah she kept them safe from harm

And she loved to chase squirrels and playin' out in the snow

She'd take off like a bullet

Man you should have seen her go

Run Maggie run

With the heart of a rebel child

Oh run Maggie run

Be just as free as you are wild

It was rainin' on a Monday the day that Maggie died

She woke up and couldn't use her legs so I laid down by her side

She put her head on my hand

Like she'd done so many times

I told her she was a good dog

Then I told her goodbye

Run Maggie run

With the heart of a rebel child

Oh run Maggie run

Be just as free as you are wild

I had a revelation as the tractor dug a hole

I can tell you right now that a dog has a soul

And I thought to myself as we buried her on the hill

I never knew me a better dog and I guess I never will

Run Maggie run

With the heart of a rebel child

Oh run Maggie run

Be just as free as you are wild

Oh run Maggie run

With the heart of a rebel child

Oh run Maggie run

Be just as free as you are wild
