When You And I Were Young Maggie Lyrics - Eddy Arnold

WHEN YOU AND I WERE YOUNG MAGGIE 

(George Johnson - James A. Butterfield) 

'35 American Cowboy Music 

I wander today to the hill Maggie to watch the scene below 

The creek and the creaking old mill Maggie as we used to long, long ago 

The green grove is gone from the hill Maggie where first the daisies sprung 

That creaking old mill is still Maggie since you and I were young 

Oh they say that m feeble with age Maggie my steps are my slower that then 

My face is a well written page Maggie and time all alone was the pen 

They say we have our different time Maggie as they hear our songs that we sung 

But to me you're as fair as you were Maggie when you and I were young 

When you and I were young
