Maggie

You don't have time for the drama

You tell it exactly like it is

If somebody steps out of line, Maggie

You're the first one to handle the business

I hear the echo when you speak your mind

You leave all the foolishness behind

Daddy was a preacher, and Lord it's true

I hear his strong voice living right inside of you

Oh, Maggie, you're a rock for this family

The strongest woman that I've ever known

Mommy and Daddy are looking down smiling

Watching the beautiful way that you've grown

They see you standing tall, they see you pull us through

They're whispering, "We know you got this, Maggie, yes you do."

I still think about that trip you made

Coming all the way up to Connecticut

You stayed right through my birthday, girl

And I know I will never forget it

A fabulous month of just me and you

Laughing and talking the whole night through

And even when you told me that I was wrong

You did it with a love that keeps me holding on

Oh, Maggie, you're a rock for this family

The strongest woman that I've ever known

Mommy and Daddy are looking down smiling

Watching the beautiful way that you've grown

They see you standing tall, they see you pull us through

They're whispering, "We know you got this, Maggie, yes you do."

You guard this family with a fierce embrace

Putting every little thing in its proper place

Tender but tough, a beautiful blend

My wonderful sister, my lifelong friend

Oh, Maggie, you're a rock for this family

The strongest woman that I've ever known

Mommy and Daddy are looking down smiling

Watching the beautiful way that you've grown

They see you standing tall, they see you pull us through

They're whispering, "We know you got this, Maggie, yes you do."

Yeah, Mommy and Daddy know you got this, Maggie, yes you do.
