I Never See Maggie Alone Songtext
von Ray Charles & Betty Carter

Maggie dear, just won′t go out alone
Seems that she must have a chaperone
When we go out no matter where we're bound
There is always somebody around

She brings her father, her mother
Her sister and her brother
Woah, I never see Maggie alone
She brings her uncle, her cousin
You know she′s got 'em by the dozens
That's why I never see Maggie alone

And if I phone her and say to her "Sweet"
Where shall we meet, supposing we eat
She brings her father, her mother
Her sister and her brother
You know, I can never, never, never see my Maggie alone


She brings her father, her mother
Her sister and her big big brother
Never see my Maggie alone
One night when we were out walking
And she got tired of talking
She invited me up to her home

I turned the lights down, they were too bright
Oh! What a sight when I turned on the light
There was her father, her mother
Her sister and her big, fat brother
Oh! I never, never, never see Maggie alone

I bought a roadster, two-seated
I even had it heated
So I could see my Maggie alone

While we were riding, and kissing
The engine started missing
And we were a long way from home

I got right out then as fast as I could
See what was wrong, when I open my hood
There was her father, her mother
Her sister and her big, fat brother
I never, never see my Maggie alone alone


I never
Oh I never
Ow, I never see my little Maggie alone
Oh, Maggie
