[00:02.26]Let me tell you a story
[00:05.30]About an old friend of mine
[00:09.12]Somebody left her in a shopping cart
[00:12.32]In a parking lot for us to find
[00:16.55]Just a fuzzy black pup
[00:19.32]She was hungry and feeling alone
[00:23.76]We put her in the back seat
[00:26.90]Told her we were taking her home
[00:30.59]Run, Maggie, run
[00:33.65]With the heart of a rebel child
[00:37.18]Oh, run, Maggie, run
[00:40.49]Be just as free as you are wild
[00:45.75]A few kids later
[00:48.54]We moved out on the farm
[00:52.34]And she followed those kids around
[00:54.94]Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
[00:59.64]And she loved to chase squirrels
[01:02.78]And playing out in the snow
[01:06.94]She’d take off like a bullet
[01:09.61]Man, you should have seen her go
[01:13.87]Run, Maggie, run
[01:16.62]With the heart of a rebel child
[01:20.33]Oh, run, Maggie, run
[01:23.64]Be just as free as you are wild
[01:27.16]
[01:29.97]
[01:43.06]It was raining on a Monday
[01:46.07]The day that Maggie died
[01:50.29]She woke up and couldn’t use her legs
[01:52.98]So I laid down by her side
[01:57.32]She put her head on my hand
[02:00.12]Like she’d done so many times
[02:04.78]I told her she was a good dog
[02:07.78]Then I told her goodbye
[02:11.30]Run, Maggie, run
[02:14.50]With the heart of a rebel child
[02:18.06]Oh, run, Maggie, run
[02:21.33]Be just as free as you are wild
[02:26.37]I had a revelation
[02:29.12]As the tractor dug a hole
[02:33.55]I can tell you right now
[02:36.36]That a dog has a soul
[02:40.88]And I thought to myself
[02:43.57]As we buried her on the hill
[02:47.96]I never knew me a better dog
[02:50.87]And I guess I never will
[02:54.96]Run, Maggie, run
[02:57.92]With the heart of a rebel child
[03:01.51]Oh, run, Maggie, run
[03:04.85]Be just as free as you are wild
[03:08.74]Oh, run, Maggie, run
[03:12.38]With the heart of a rebel child
[03:16.05]Oh, run, Maggie, run
[03:19.49]Be just as free as you are wild
