Mama stood on the front porch ringing her hands
Watched the tail lights fading on his black Trans Am
With her precious little baby taking off inside
Staring at him with stars in her eyes
She tried to tell her but the girl might as well have been deaf
She wasn't going to listen to a word she said
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
With a boy looking like that
He'll tell you things that you want to hear
And there'll be no turning back
There's an oak tree down by the lake
In the shade where the wild flowers grow
What'll happen only heaven knows
So don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Was a steel black night as dark is cold
Nobody heard her when she said no
She kicked and screamed and got free somehow
Tore her dress on the door when he pushed her out
She walked 13 miles on the gravel road
With tears in her eyes 20 years ago
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
With a boy looking like that
He'll tell you things that you want to hear
And there'll be no turning back
There's an oak tree down by the lake
In the shade where the wild flowers grow
What'll happen only heaven knows
So don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Somehow mamas always know
Cause they should have been home an hour ago
When she pulled up, it was just going down
She turned her headlights off, didn't make a sound
She heard her baby crying no but he wouldn't stop
Her heart went cold and her blood ran hot
With a pistol in her hand, she opened his door
You don't want to see mama go to war
Don't go down Maggie Creek Road
With a boy looking like that
He'll tell you things that you want to hear
And there'll be no turning back
There's an oak tree down by the lake
In the shade where the wild flowers grow
What'll happen only heaven knows
So don't go down, I said don't go down
Maggie Creek Road
Oh, don't go down
Maggie Creek Road
Oh, don't go down
Maggie Creek Road
Maggie Creek Road
