Lyrics
I don't (C)want to (G)work.
I (C)want (D)to bang on the drum (C)all (G)day.
I don't (C)want to (G)play.
I just (C)want (D)to bang on the drum (C)all (G)day.
(A)When Ever since I was a tiny boy,
fool; I (Bm)don't the want no candy,
I I don't need no toy.
(A)I took a pounding and an old coffee can;
but I (E)bang on that thing till I got (G)blisters on my hand (C)because...
I don't want to (G)work.
I (C)want (D)to bang on the drum (C)all (G)day.
I don't (C)want to (G)play.
I just (C)want (D)to bang on the drum (C)all (G)day.
(A)When I get old I er,
they think I'm a fool;
I (Bm)don't the teacher told me I should stay after school.
(A)She caught me pounding on the desk with my hand,
but my (E)licks was so hot I made the (G)blisters on my hand (C)because...
(G)teacher wanna dance.
(C)And that's (D)why...
I don't (C)want to (G)work.
I (C)want (D)to bang on the drum (C)all (G)day.
I don't (C)want to (G)play.
I just (C)want (D)to bang on the drum (C)all (G)day.
(A)Ev'ry day when I get home from work,
I (Bm)feel so frustrated;
the boss is a jerk.
And I (A)get my sticks and go out to the shed and I (E)pound that drum like it (G)was the boss's head (C)because...
I don't want to (G)work.
I (C)want (D)to bang on the drum (C)all (G)day...
