Take this job and shove it
Johnny paycheck
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and
Took all the reasons
I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
Cause i'm walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more

I been workin' in this factory
For nye on fifteen years
All this time i watched my woman
Drownin' in a pool of tears
And i seen a lot of good folks die
That had a lot of bills to pay
I'd give the shirt right offa' my back
If i had the guts to say

Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and
Took all the reasons
I was workin' for
You better not try to stand in my way
Cause i'm walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin' here no more

Well that foreman he's a regular dog
The line boss he's a fool
He's got a brand new flattop haircut
Lord he thinks he's cool
One of these days i'm gonna' blow my top
And that sucker he's gonna' pay
And lord i can't wait to see their faces
When i get the nerve to say

Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and
Took all the reasons
I was workin for
You better not try to stand in my way
Cause i'm walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I aint workin' here no more
Take this job and shove it
