Paycheck Johnny - Take This Job And Shove It lyrics

[David Allan Coe]

(Chorus)

Take this job and shove it I ain't workin' here no more

My woman done left and took all the reason I was working for

Ya, better not try and stand in my way

Cause I'm walkin', out the door

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 a lot of good folks die who had a lot 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

Got a brand new flat top haircut Lord, he 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 to see their faces when I get the nerve to say...

(Chorus)

Take this job and shove it
