Take This Job and Shove It Songtext
von Johnny Paycheck

Take this job and shove it
I ain′t workin' here no more
My woman done left
And took all the reason
I was workin′ for

You better not try to stand in my way
As I'm a-walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain′t workin′ here no more

I've been workin′ 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 folk die
That had a lot of bills to pay
I'd give the shirt right offa my back
If I had the nuts to say


Take this job and shove it
I ain′t working here no more
My woman done left
And took all the reason
I was workin' for

You better not try to stand in my way
As I'm a-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
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
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 workin′ here no more
My woman done left
And took all the reason
I was workin′ for


You better not try to stand in my way
As I'm a-walkin′ out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin′ here no more

Take this job and shove it
