[David Allan Coe]



(Chorus)

Take this job and shove it

I ain't workin' here no more

Woman done left

Took all the reason

I was working for

Ya, better not try to stand in my way

As I'm walkin', out that door

You can take this job and shove it

I ain't working here no more



Well, I been working 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 alot of good folks die

Who had alot of bills to pay

I'd give the shirt right off of my back

If I had the guts to say...



(Chorus)



The foreman, he's a regular dog

The line boss, he's a fool

He got a flat top haircut

Lord, the boy thinks he's cool

One of these days

I'm gonna blow my top

And that sucker, he's gonna pay

I can't wait

Until I get the nerve

To walk up to him and say...



(Chorus)



Take this job and shove it
