Maggie's Farm

[Verse 1] I am not going to work on Maggie's farm no more No, I am not going to 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 driving me insane It's a shame the way she makes me scrub the floor I am not going to work on Maggie's farm no more [Verse 2] I am not going to work for Maggie's brother no more No, I am not going to 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 Then he fines you every time you slam the door I am not going to work for Maggie's brother more [Verse 3] I am not going to work for Maggie's pa no more No, I am not going t 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 am not going to work for Maggie's pa no more [Verse 4] I am not going to work for Maggie's ma no more No, am not going to work for Maggie's ma no more Well, when 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 fifty-four I am not going to work for Maggie's ma no more [Verse 5] I am not going to work on Maggie's farm no more I am not going to 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 say sing while you slave and I just get bored I am not going to work on Maggie's farm no more
