Take This Job And Shove It Lyrics
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
They’ll have you in this factory
From now on for fifty years
All this time I see my woman
Drowning in her tears
I see a lot of people who
Gotta have a piece of me
I’d give the shirt right off my back
If I had the nerve to say
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
The foreman is a regular S.O.B.
The night boss he's a fool
Got brand new skinhead hair cuts
You think he’s a fool
One of these days I'll blow my top
And somebody’s gonna pay
I’d hate to see the look on his face
When I get the nerve to say
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove
I ain't working here no more
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here
Ain't working here
Ain't working here no more
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
From now on for fifty years
All this time I see my woman
Drowning in her tears
I see a lot of people who
Gotta have a piece of me
I’d give the shirt right off my back
If I had the nerve to say
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
The night boss he's a fool
Got brand new skinhead hair cuts
You think he’s a fool
One of these days I'll blow my top
And somebody’s gonna pay
I’d hate to see the look on his face
When I get the nerve to say
I ain't working here no more
My woman left and took all the reasons I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
When I'm walking out the door
Take this job and shove
I ain't working here no more
I ain't working here
Ain't working here
Ain't working here no more

staticburn in right, its funny too because rappers Canibus and Biz Markie do a hip-hop cover of this song, you can hear it on the ending credits of the movie Office Space i was like WTF?!? is that a DK cover!?! (or David Allen Coe, whichever you choose) i thought i was kinda cool
David Allan Coe actually wrote this song before Paycheck got a hit off of it. Coe Actually Preforms the DK's version at his concerts sometimes.
Ha ha ain't that the truth.
good song..a Johnny Paycheck cover
my bad, i meant to say "i thought it* was cool" instead of "I was cool" but im still cool tho HAHA
Sent in a company wide e-mail, programmed to be played on infinite repeat... when I get the ass from my job... FKN CLASSIC SONG!
