    Chris Stapleton Maggie's Song Lyrics Video.
    According to Chris Stapleton via NPR:
    “I wrote [Maggie’s Song] the day after our dog, Maggie, passed away. We had her for 14 years and I miss her quite a bit. I’m not really a dog person, either, that’s worth saying. But I loved that dog for sure. Every word of that song is just a true thing.”
    [Verse]
    Let me tell you a story
    About an old friend of mine
    Somebody left her in a shopping cart
    In a parking lot for us to find
    Just a fuzzy black pup
    She was hungry and feeling alone
    We put her in the back seat
    And told her we were taking her home
    [Chorus]
    Run, Maggie run
    With the heart of a rebel child
    Oh, run, Maggie run
    Be just as free as you are wild
    [Verse]
    A few kids later
    We moved out on the farm
    And she followed those kids around
    Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
    And she loved to chase squirrels
    And playing out in the snow
    She'd take off like a bullet
    Man, you should have seen her go
    [Chorus]
    Run, Maggie run
    With the heart of a rebel child
    Oh, run, Maggie run
    Be just as free as you are wild
    [Verse]
    It was raining on a Monday
    The day that Maggie died
    She woke up and couldn't use her legs
    So I laid down by her side
    She put her head on my hand
    Like she'd done so many times
    I told her she was a good dog
    Then I told her goodbye
    [Chorus]
    Run, Maggie run
    With the heart of a rebel child
    Oh, run, Maggie run
    Be just as free as you are wild
    [Verse]
    I had a revelation
    As the tractor dug a hole
    I can tell you right now
    That a dog has a soul
    And I thought to myself
    As we buried her on the hill
    I never knew me a better dog
    And I guess I never will
    [Chorus]
    Run, Maggie run
    With the heart of a rebel child
    Oh, run, Maggie run
    Be just as free as you are wild
    Oh, run, Maggie run
    With the heart of a rebel child
    Oh, run, Maggie run
    Be just as free as you are wild

    I just lost my Maggie yesterday. She was dumped on the side of the road 11 years ago. She was waiting for the idiots that threw her away. She was cold and scared. I bought her home and she never left my side. She loved unconditionally with her heart and soul. Her body failed her but not her love. As I sat on the floor holding her and her paw, I watched her pass. My heart breaks for my Maggie girl. Ran free of pain sweet girl. Mommy loves you 💗 💓 ❤.

    Up date.. I just lost another one yesterday,, 5 Feb 2024. Had him for 15 years. He was given to me. Either I took him or the dog pound would. So I gave him a good loving home.. i'm setting here crying like a baby..
    I'm 75 years old and cry like a baby e very time I hear this song. I've had, loved and lost far too many dogs and they were all wonderful loving friends and companions. All were better than most of the humans I have known. I'm looking forward to being with all of them some time in the distant future.
    Question: When you die, how do you know if you are in Heaven?
    Answer: You know you are in Heaven when you see all of your former pets running to greet you and love you again.

Great with everyone, especially kids. We were Blessed to have him 'til he was 18 & well, he was mostly white with a slight undercoat of the shiny black fur by then!! He had a great life.

      Just had to put my best friend to sleep 3 days ago and I don't know if I will ever be the same. Maverick my Aussie will forever hold a spot in my heart no dog will ever be able to replace. I have another dog too a female Aussie whom I love to death, but she could never be what he was to me. He came into my life at a point when I was pretty low and helped me in so many ways and was by best friend from day 1. He only lived to be 9.5 and had to rush him to the emergency vet as he was fine in the morning when I left for work, but when I got home collapsed trying to walk to me and was drooling everywhere to find out he had a tumor in his spleen that had burst and blood had filled his abdomen. Surgery would have cost 8.5K which I would have happily paid, but at his age and the fact that his spleen burst the vet told me she was almost positive it was cancerous and even with a successful surgery he would only have about 5-6 months. So I decided I didn't want his last days to be spent in pain recovering from a surgery then pain from cancer so I put him down. I've never known hurt like this and can't imagine a pain like it. Don't have kids, but I suppose a parent burying their child would be worse, but at 38 with no kids and no wife he was my entire world. I would give anything to have him back with me and have never felt so lost and alone.

    It's hard letting go. I had a Golden Retriever who passed this last August, at the ripe old age of 17 (!)
    She was four when she came to me, and was with me for thirteen years. This song makes me break down and cry like a baby every time
    I hear it; I know dogs have a soul. I've never doubted it. The tears are a good thing, though. They help wash away the pain of losing friends, FAMILY, that you know won't live as long as you. Doggos are pure souls, so they just get to go home earlier. And I truly believe the God I know wouldn't permanently separate us from our furfriends. So I'll see them again someday. RIP Misty, Molly, Roland, and Heidi.

    Makes me cry. I am reminded of our first rescue and how hard it was to let her go...I thought I/we would never have another one, but we now have a new one. She was abused and abandoned and as I told my wife she needed us. It has taken a lot of work and love, but she is ours now and we are hers. I have no doubt that dogs were created by God to give us a glimpse of unconditional love.

    I lost my girl last March, to cancer. Her name was Daisie and she's pictured with me. Best dog ever, and my husband and I took some of her ashes to our favorite off roading spot in the mountains in Santa Clarita CA. We put a little part of her under a tree overlooking the Apple Valley. She absolutely loved going on our off road adventures. Every day I think of her and how much I miss that 78 pounds of pure love. This is no joke: making the decision to put her down was the hardest decision of my adult live. I almost passed out in the hallway of the Vet hospital walking out of there with her empty collar and saying goodbye to her. Truly a one in a billion dog.

    Our Maggie known as Ziggy is still with us. We rescued her because no one wanted her, why she was a runner. Adopted several times and brought back she ended with us. Bought an expense fence to fence in our large yard where she runs freely. Sometimes when she is silly and wants to play with our other rescue she runs like PHOEBEE from friends, all four legs flaring in all directions. She brings so much love and smiles. She has a sensitive side too staying by my side as I fight through stage 4 lung cancer. I’ll give her the best life possible until it’s her time. My husband heard this song and sent it to me. Ahh! She looks like a mini black Aussie with some white 20 pounds of pure joy.

Dooey Boy was with us alomost 16 years ....the last year Dooey Boy was pushed in a special stroller when we went out for long walks. Dooey Boy is buried under the oak tree we planted out in the middle of the so. california desert. We don't live there any longer but I will drive by one day and see how big the tree has grown. Dooey Boy has been running with perfect legs thru the flowers and rivers almost 11 years now. I'm 63 years old now and have another "Maggie" dog...her name is ShyShy a german shepherd 10 years old and shes almost as amazing as Dooey Boy.

    Heard this song yesterday and I’m still crying. I’m 62 and I’ve raised many dogs. My current Boxer has the dog version of Lou Gehrig’s disease and her rear legs don’t work hardly at all. She walks like a drunken sailor. We know she will only be with us a few more months. She’s 10 and has been the most loving, trusting, well behaved, and athletic dog I’ve ever seen. Many days she’d run to exhaustion catching a tennis ball or a frisbee. Now she can barely walk. Every time I snuggle with her she always puts her left paw on my right arm. That paw print is now tattooed on that arm.

He stayed with us for the next 18 years and two moves. He was a cockapoo. This song was made for people who understand a good friendship with a dog. Makes me want to see Dog the movie with Channing Tatum.

    My baby was a pitbull and he was my best friend. He passed away on February 13th of 2018. We had gotten him when I was just 4 years old, almost 5. He was 12½ years old when he passed and I was going to be 18 that year. He had helped me through so much growing up and he's the reason I love pitbulls as much as I do. I have his pawprint tattooed on my forearm... my only tattoo so far. He will always be my best friend and my protector. Nothing and nobody ever harmed me or my family when he was still here. I can't wait to be back with him at the bridge and I hope he's being a good boy up there.
    Rest in peace, Jager/JagJagz/Buddy.

      The line about her laying her head on his hand like she'd done so many times is just like my last moments with my dog. This song just hits me hard. So I get ya

    Love this song. When I lost my once in a lifetime soul dog, I listened to it over and over again.

    We lost Our Zippy Boy on December 28th 2020. He had a heart condition and died at home. We were by His side when He passed. I told Him that He was a good boy and it was time to go home. He sat up and looked at My Wife and I one last time and then layed down and passed away. My Wife still cries every day for ol Zip..She called Him Her "Lil Secret Service" because He followed Her everywhere She went. He was the best Family dog and will always be missed. Zip was an Italian Greyhound. Till We meet again.....ol boy!

    Sobbing to this song omg. Reminds me of my dog Maggie, she was abandoned and we rescued our sweet girl. And she LOVES to chase squirrels. She’s thankfully still with us but the day she goes is gonna be the worst day of my life.

    I said good bye to my Bacco yesterday. He was just shy of 10 years old and provide me more love than I deserved. They say a Dog's life is shorter than a human because a dog provides 10x the love and joy than human and I know that is true. This is the 5th dog I have lost over the years and it never gets any easier but I would not trade the pain i am feeling today if it meant given back all the love and joy I had all those years!!

      I found a pair of pups on Dixie Highway in 2001, brought'em home and named them Dixie and Highway. Highway made it to 9, Dixie made it to almost 13. Great dogs, I loved them then and I love them now.

    Wow - Tears - sounds just our Golden Retriever - Her name was Maggie too! She was the best dog ever! We think about her and miss her so much! My daughter and I wish we could talk my hubby to get another dog. I don't think he would ever want to go through getting attached to another dog and something happening to it. She was our baby too! She would run after the squirrels and go see the neighbors - we all loved her so much! Just before she passed she couldn't walk anymore too! She passed at 9 years old with cancer. Beautiful song!
