The Grateful Dead - Maggie’s Farm lyrics

[The Grateful Dead - Maggie’s Farm lyrics]

Well, I ain't gonna work on
Maggie's farm no more
Ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Wake up in the morning, fold my hands
Pray for rain got a head full of ideas
That are drivin' me insane
It's a shame the way they
Makes me scrub the floor
Ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more

I ain't gonna work for
Maggie's brother no more
Ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more
Hands you a nickel, hands you a dime
Asks you with a grin if
You're having a good time
Then he fines you every time
You slam the door i ain't gonna work for
Maggie's brother no more

Ain't gonna work for Maggie's ma no more


Ain't gonna work for Maggie's ma no more
Well, she talks to the servants about
Man and God and law
Everybody knows she's the brains behind pa
She's sixty-eight, says she's twenty-four
Ain't gonna work for Maggie's ma no more

Ain't gonna work for Maggie's pa no more
Ain't gonna work for Maggie's father no more
He puts his cigar out in
Your face just for kicks
Bedroom window is made out of bricks
The national guard hangs 'round his door
I ain't gonna work for
Maggie's father no more

Ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
Try my very best to be just like I am
Everybody wants me to be just like them
They sing while you slave and
I just get bored
Ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
