Guy Clark Magdalene Lyrics

Magdalene Lyrics

I ain't lookin' for trouble

I can't stay here tonight

I got to leave here on the double

If I want to see the morning light

Don't need no pistol for the tickets

I've got just enough to get us down the line

I don't know what happens next

Your guess is just as good as mine



Chorus



Move with me Magdalene

I'm tired of the same old scene

There's a greyhound leaving at midnight

If you came with me it'd be like a dream

Come on Magdalene

Move with me Magdalene



Verse



I've heard Mexico is easy

I wouldn't stay here if I could

Don't come along just to please you

Let's go while the going's good



Chorus



Move with me Magdalene

I'm tired of the same old scene

Let's go down to San Miguel

Let's go be somebody else tonight

Come on Magdalene

There's a greyhound leaving at midnight 

If you came with me it'd be like a dream

Come on Magdalene

Move with me Magdalene
