CHORUS
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin' here no more
My woman done left and took all the reasons
I was workin' for
You better not to try to stand in my way
As I walk out the door
Just take this job and shove it
'Cause I ain't workin' here no more.
I've been workin' in this fact'ry
For nigh on fifteen years
Seen some of my best friends' women
Drownin' in a pool of tears
Seen alot of my kinfolk die
Had a lot of bills to pay
Lord, I'd give the shirt right off of my back
If I had the guts to say...
REPEAT CHORUS
The foreman is a regular low-down dog
The line boss is a fool
Got himself a brand new flattop haircut
Lord, he really thinks that's cool
One of these days, I'm gonna blow my top
And somebody's going to pay
Lord, I can't wait to see their faces
When I get the nerve to say...
Take This Job And Shove It
