[Verse 1]
Maggie is looking for attention
Maggie is on the spot
She makes advances
Takes her chances
Maggie knows what she got
She meets a man down on the corner
Lights up his cigarette
He says I've got the magic, Maggie
She says I won't forget
[Chorus]
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
[Bridge]
The more that you learn
The less that you know
But that don't stop Maggie (Maggie)
The wisdom of the ancients
With so little patience
Why can't everyone see things her way?
[Chorus]
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
[Verse 2]
Maggie turned 19 yesterday
She thinks she knows everything
Headin' non-stop for her
Roaring twenties
And whatever comes in between
She's gettin' ready to play with fire
I know she's itchin' to play
The man on the corner's got some
News for you Maggie
Better listen to what he'll say
[Chorus]
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
[Bridge]
She's out on her own
Headin' for the danger zone
Better slow down Miss Maggie (Maggie)
Tearin' up the city streets
You better plan a quick retreat
Or you might grow up
All in one day, yeah
[Chorus]
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
[Bridge]
She's out on her own
Headin' for the danger zone
Better watch out Miss Maggie (Maggie)
If you want to play the game
Most times you've got to pay the man
Cause life just seems
To work out that way, yeah
[Chorus]
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
[Outro]
Maggie
Maggie
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
You wanna dance, Maggie, dance
You gotta dance, Maggie, dance
