歌曲歌詞
She stepped off the bus
With a burst suitcase and a frown
And she could smell the breweries
And abattoirs on the edge of town
And the man who owes her money
Won't even lend her an ear
When she phones to demand his answer's vague
He says I'll get back to you
But right now I've got to catch the plague
Down in a bargain basement
She goes to shuffle through careers
all they offer her
Is friendship and peace souveniers
And the receptionist was playing
With a pencil at her lip
She asked her if she knew a place to sleep
She says I'll get back to you
But now I've got appointments to keep
Well There was a shop called B J
That she stepped into to get out of the gale
They sold only British manufactured
Lifetime guaranteed to fail
And a store detective asked her
What she had under her coat
It's just a little something that I wrote
It says I'll get back to you unless
First your girlfriend slits your throat
And by the time the sun set
She was penniless and frozen to the core
The Salvation Army girls refused her
On the grounds they didn't know
So she asked them well for advice
But it turned out to be
A Sunday sport reporter
Who was following his nose
He said I'll get back to you
But first we need a picture without clothes
So she stepped back on that bus
With a burst suitcase and a frown
She had come to the conclusion
That this was not the place for Maggie Brown
And it was 6 in the morning
When she telephoned me
Until then I'd been living on my knees
But I got back up when she got back to me
