Maggie's Farm |
I ain’t gonna work on maggie’s farm no more. |
No, i ain’t gonna work on maggie’s farm no more. |
Well, i wake in the morning, |
Fold my hands and pray for rain. |
I got a head full of ideas |
That are drivin' me insane. |
It’s a shame the way she makes me scrub the floor. |
I ain’t gonna work on maggie’s farm no more. |
I ain’t gonna work for maggie’s brother no more. |
No, i ain’t gonna work for maggie’s brother no more. |
Well, he hands you a nickel, |
He hands you a dime, |
He asks you with a grin |
If you’re havin' a good time, |
Then he fines you every time you slam the door. |
I ain’t gonna work for maggie’s brother no more. |
I ain’t gonna work for maggie’s pa no more. |
No, i ain’t gonna work for maggie’s pa no more. |
Well, he puts his cigar |
Out in your face just for kicks. |
His bedroom window |
It is made out of bricks. |
The national guard stands around his door. |
Ah, i ain’t gonna work for maggie’s pa no more. |
I ain’t gonna work for maggie’s ma no more. |
No, i ain’t gonna work for maggie’s ma no more. |
Well, she talks to all the servants |
About man and god and law. |
Everybody says |
She’s the brains behind pa. |
She’s sixty-eight, but she says she’s twenty-four. |
I ain’t gonna work for maggie’s ma no more. |
I ain’t gonna work on maggie’s farm no more. |
No, i ain’t gonna work on maggie’s farm no more. |
Well, i try my best |
To be just like i am, |
But everybody wants you |
To be just like them. |
They sing while you slave and i just get bored. |
