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
But it's driving me insane
It's a shame the way she makes me scrub that floor
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's brother no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's brother no more
Well, he hands you a nickel
And he hands you a dime
Then he asks you with a grin
If you're having a good time
He finds you every time you slam the door
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's brother no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's brother no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, he puts his cigar out your face and just kicks
And his bedroom window is made out of bricks
Well, a National Guard stands around your door
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, she talks to you old servants about men and God and law
Everybody says she's brains behind Paul
But she's 68 but she says she's 24
I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Yeah, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Yeah, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Well, I tried my best to be just like I am
Everybody wants you to be just like them
But it's the same for your slavery
I just get bored
I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Wow!
