Goodnight, Texas - I'm Going to Work on Maggie's Farm Forever lyrics

I worked in her fields And under her trees I picked all her cotton It stung me like bees I shoveled her dirt When no one else would I gave her way more Than I ever should And I'm still here with nothing Whatsoever So I'm gonna work on Maggie's farm forever I ground down my knuckles for nothing at all I've worked on my knees till i couldn't crawl I've felt so worthless I can hardly recall A time before she had me trapped in her wall The odds of me leaving are slim to almost never Yeah I'm gonna work on Maggie's farm forever I've thought to myself in the darkest of nights Of freedom above me where all is alright But I wake up so cold on a cracked wooden floor And I've got to admit I'm not sure anymore Yeah i live in this endless misery however, Yeah I'm gonna work on Maggie's farm forever I've dreamed to myself with no one around Of burning her plantation down to the ground And watching her scream from her 3rd story room And light up my shovel wheelbarrow and broom All burned the point you could never exhume A filthiest past one could ever endure And her ashes will smolder the finest perfume If i have the strength to get out of this room I know no other living whatsoever I'm gonna work on maggie's farm forever. I'm gonna work on maggie's farm forever
