Magdalene - Joe Ely

I ain’t looking 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

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

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
