Take This Job And Shove It
Johnny Paycheck
[David Allan Coe]
[Chorus:]
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin' here no more
Woman done left
Took all the reason
I was working for
Ya, better not try to stand in my way
As I'm walkin', out that door
You can take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
Well, I been working in this factory
For now on fifteen years
All this time, I watched my woman
Drownin' in a pool of tears
And I've seen a lot of good folks die
Who had a lot of bills to pay
I'd give the shirt right off of my back
If I had the guts to say...
[Chorus:]
The foreman, he's a regular dog
The line boss, he's a fool
He got a flat top haircut
Lord, the boy thinks he's cool
One of these days
I'm gonna blow my top
And that sucker, he's gonna pay
I can't wait
Until I get the nerve
To walk up to him and say...
[Chorus:]
Take this job and shove it
