Lyrics
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more No, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more When I wake up in the morning, fold my hands, pray for rain Got a head full of ideas, that are drivin' me insane It's a shame the way they makes me scrub the floor No, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more Hands you a nickel, hands you a dime Asks you with a grin if you're having 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 Ain't gonna work for Maggie's pa no more He puts his cigar out in your face just for kicks But his bedroom window is made out of sticks And the National Guard stands outside the door I ain't gonna work for Maggie's pa no more I ain't gonna work for Maggie's ma no more I ain't gonna work for Maggie's ma no more Ah, 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 says she's twenty-four Man, I ain't gonna work for Maggie's ma no more I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more Do my very best to be just who I am But everybody wants me to be just like them They sing while you slave and I just get bored I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
