I wan-dered to-day to the hill, Mag-gie,
to wa-tch the sce-ne be-low.
The creek and the rus-ty old mill, Mag-gie,
where we sat in the long, long a-go.
The green grove is gone from the hill, Mag-gie
where first the dai-sies have sprung.
The old rus-ty mill i-s still, Mag-gie,
si-nce you a-nd I we-re young.
In A ci-ty so si-lent and lone, Mag-gie,
where the young and the gay an' best.
In pol-ished white man-sions of stone, Mag-gie,
have each found A pla-ce of rest,
is built where the birds used to play, Mag-gie,
and join in songs that were sung.
For we sang just as gay as they, Mag-gie,
wh-en you a-nd I we-re young.
They say I am fee-ble with age, mag-gie,
my steps are less spright-ly 'n then
my face is A well writ-ten page, Mag-gie,
b-ut time a-lone w--as the pen.
When y-ou and I we-re young.
