Джон исполнял песню в исторический день 6 июля 1957...
еще одна, не битловская версия:
MAGGIE MAE
(Irish Rovers' version)
Chorus:
Oh, Maggie, Maggie Mae, they have taken you away
And you'll never walk down Lang Street anymore
You robbed so many sailors, and the captains of the whalers
You're a dirty, rotten, no good, Maggie Mae
Gather round ye sailor boys and listen to my plea
When you hear tale I know you'll pity me
For I was a bloody fool, in the port of Liverpool
The first time that I came home from the sea
Chorus
I never will forget, the night when first we met
I was walking down along old Kenning Place
When a figure so divine, like a frigate on the line
The kind of girl a sailor likes to chase
Chorus
Well, I woke up in my bed, with a thundering in my head
All my clothes and my money stole away
And as I walked along the street, all the ladies I did meet
Said, "You'll find them down in pawn shop number nine.”
Chorus
Chorus
