lyrics

there’s a bad storm moving in across the prairie sky
the clouds roll like thunder and the lightening splits the night
i’m alone with my memories, the darkness and the pain
the trees are trembling in the wind, i hear the falling rain

oh, sweet maggie lee, do you remember me?
i used to be your sweetheart out by the rolling sea
i came here to this prairie town when the stakes were running high
now the booms gone bust, the works played out, the money’s running dry

every day i walk the banks of the ice fed river bow
to watch the river running east, that’s where i’d like to go
i’ve seen the streets of calgary, i’ve known the prairie sky
i’ve made and lost a fortune since i left and made you cry
and now i wonder why

you said that i should have stayed and we might have settled down
but the western plains they called to me and they took me from your town
now there’s nothing i can do or say to stop this falling rain
but if ever i can find a way, i will hold you once again

every day i walk the banks of the ice fed river bow
to watch the river running east, that’s where i’d like to go
i’ve seen the streets of calgary, i’ve known the prairie sky
i’ve made and lost a fortune since i left and made you cry
and now i wonder why

every day i walk the banks of the ice fed river bow
to watch the river running east, that’s where i’d like to go
i’ve seen the streets of calgary, i’ve known the prairie sky
i’ve made and lost a fortune since i left and made you cry
and now i wonder why
