Take This Job and Shove It Lyrics


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 forYou better not try to stand in my way
As I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no moreI've been working in this factory
For nigh on fifteen years
All this time I watched my woman
Drowning in a pool of tearsAnd I've seen a lot of good folks die
That had a lot of bills to pay
I'd give the shirt right off my back
If I had the guts to sayTake this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left
And took all the reasons
I was working forYou better not try to stand in my way

As I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no moreWell that foreman he's a regular dog
The line boss he's a fool
Got a brand new flattop hair cut
Lord he thinks he's coolOne of these days I'm gonna blow my top
And that sucker he's gonna pay
Lord I can't wait to see their faces
When I get the nerve to sayTake this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left
And took all the reasons
I was working forYou better not try to stand in my way
As I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no moreTake this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
Take this job and shove it

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
