Maggies Farm - 2022 Remaster Song Lyrics

I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
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 and they're driving 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
I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more
Well he throws you a penny and he thinks he's so kind
He asks you with a grin if you're having a good time
And 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
I ain't gonna work for Maggie's pa no more
Well he puts his cigar out in your face, just for kicks
He bedroom window, it is made out of bricks
And national front stands behind closed doors

I ain't gonna work for Maggie's pa no more
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 all the servants about man and God and law
Everybody says that she's the brains behind it all
Shes sixty-eight but she says she's fifty-four

I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
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
They say sing while you slave, but I just get bored

I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
