Take This Job And Shove It Lyrics

Chorus: TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AINT WORKIN HERE NO MORE
MY WOMAN DONE
LEFT AND TOOK ALL OF THE REASONS I WAS WORKING FOR
YOU BETTER NOT TRY TO
STAND IN MY WAY/ WHEN I WALK OUT THE DOOR
TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AINT
WORKIN HERE NO MORE

I BEEN WORKING IN THIS FACTORY/ PRETTY CLOSE TO 15
YEARS
IVE SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS WOMEN/ STANDING IN A POOL OF TEARS
IVE
SEEN A LOT OF KINFOLKS DYING/ I HAD A LOT OF BILLS TO PAY
LORD, ID GIVE THE
SHIRT RIGHT OFFIN MY BACK/ IF I HAD THE NERVE TO SAY:

Repeat
Chorus

THE FOREMAN IS A REGULAR S.O.B. AND THE NIGHT BOSS, HES A
FOOL
HE GOT HIMSELF A BRAND NEW FLATTOP HAIRCUT
LORD, HE REALLY THINKS
THATS COOL
ONE OF THESE DAYS IM GONNA BLOW MY TOP
AND THERES GONNA BE
HELL TO PAY
I CANT WAIT TO SEE THEIR FACES WHEN I GET THE NERVE TO
SAY

Repeat Chorus

TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT . . .
