I Ain’t Gonna Paint No More by Karen Beaumont

Karen Beaumont wrote a wonderful book called "I Ain't Gonna Paint No More" with illustrations by David Catrow which was an adaptation of an old song called "It Ain't Gonna Rain No More." I'm stuck at home without my copy of the book, but that doesn't stop me from singing it! It's a favorite, as you might be able to tell.
Lyrics:
One day my mama caught me paintin’ pictures on the floor
And the ceiling
And the walls
And the curtains
And the door,
And I heard my mama holler
Like I never did before…
“Ya ain’t gonna paint no more! Ya ain't gonna paint no more!"
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
That’s what I say, but there ain’t no way I ain’t gonna paint no more
So I take some red and I paint my head
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
Aw, what the heck, gonna paint my neck!
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
Still I just can’t rest till I paint my chest!
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
Guess there ain’t no harm if I paint my arm.
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more.
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
But I just can’t stand not to paint my hand.
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
Then I see some black so I paint my back
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
Like an Easter egg gonna paint my leg!
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
Still I ain’t complete ‘til I paint my feet.
Now I ain’t gonna paint no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more
I ain’t gonna paint no more.
But I’m such a nut my gonna paint my...
WHAT?!?
Y’all don’t faint…
Cause there’s no more paint
So I ain’t gonna paint no more.
