Story behind the song
I always liked this song, but the chords were very difficult to find out, I just managed to hear what the first chords are. Then I came in contact with Peter Kruger, a Canadian Fagen-freak who gave me free a whole bunch of charts from Fagen songs. Very useful, I play the nice tunes very much now. Thanks, Peter!
Lyrics
Some say that we're reckless They say we're much too young Tell us to stop before we've begun We've got to hold out till graduation Try to hang on Maxine While the world is sleeping We meet at Lincoln Mall Talk about life the meaning of it all Try to make sense of the suburban sprawl Try to hang on Maxine Mexico City is like another world Nice this year they say You'll be my senorita In jeans and pearls But first let's get off this highway We'll move up to Manhattan And fill the place with friends Drive to the coast and drive right back again One day we'll wake up, make love but 'til then Try to hang on Maxine
