I Ain't Gonna Work On Maggie's Farm No More Lyrics - Waterboys

(Bob Dylan) 

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

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

I wake up every morning 

hold my hands and pray for rain 

I've got a head full of ideas 

driving me insane 

It's a shame the way she makes me scrub the floor 

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

Well, I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more 

I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more 

He hands you a nickel 

he hands you a dime 

He asks you and your friends 

if you're having a good time 

He blames you every time you slam the door 

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

Well, I ain't gonna work for Maggie's Pa no more 

I ain't gonna work for Maggie's Pa no more 

He stubs his cigarette out in your face just for kicks 

his bedroom window is made out of bricks 

And the National Guard are standing at his door 

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

Well, I ain't gonna work for Maggie's mother no more 

I ain't gonna work for Maggie's mother no more 

She talks to all the servants about man and God and law 

and everybody swears she's the brains behind Pa 

She's sixty-eight, but claim's she's twenty-four 

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 

I try so hard to be just who I am 

but everybody wants you to be just like them 

They say "see, while you're playing I get bored"? 

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