THINGS AIN’T WORKING OUT DOWN AT THE FARM As recorded by Thin Lizzy (1971 single release) [Verse 1] There goes Moses carrying his Bible book Never has a problem just has a cup It’s good clean alcohol and it fills you up And here I go laughing like a fool yeah [Chorus] Things ain’t working out down at the farm Got no bag or baggage or love to keep me warm And I ain’t been in trouble since the day I was born N.C. Things ain’t working out down at the farm [Verse 2] I used to spend my sunny days supping aways Along came gogarty and he put me away Down at the station was kept for strays And I went laughing geez he like busting me he liked busting me [Chorus] Things ain’t working out down at the farm Got no bag or baggage or love to keep me warm And I ain’t been in trouble since the day I was born N.C. Things ain’t working out down at the farm [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Things ain’t working out down at the farm Got no bag or baggage or love to keep me warm And I ain’t been in trouble since the day I was born N.C. Things ain’t working out down at the farm [Bridge] He caught me unawares and he made me strip naked Oh I was scared oh I was scared I was shaking And he said N.C. It’s you and me And me and you N.C. And me and me And you and you And me and me And I just kept laughing like a fool yeah Things ain’t working out down at the farm [Chorus] Things ain’t working out down at the farm Got no bag or baggage or love to keep me warm And I ain’t been in trouble since the day I was born [Outro] Things ain’t working out down at the farm
