Lyrics
[Verse 1] 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 up in the morning Fold my hands and pray for rain I got a head full of ideas That are drivin' me insane [Chorus] It's a shame the way she makes me scrub the floor I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more [Verse 2] 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 having a good time [Chorus] Then he fines you every time you slam the door I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] The National Guard stands around his door Ah, I ain't gonna work for Maggie's Pa no more [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus] She's sixty-eight, but she says she's fifty-four I ain't gonna work for Maggie's Ma no more [Verse 5] I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more 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 [Chorus] They say "Sing while you slave" and I just get bored Ah, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
