TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT
David Allan Coe


Chorus: TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AIN'T WORKING' HERE NO MORE MY 
WOMAN DONE LEFT AND TOOK ALL OF THE REASONS I WAS WORKING FOR YOU 
BETTER NOT TRY TO STAND IN MY WAY/ WHEN I WALK OUT THE DOOR TAKE 
THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AIN'T WORKING' HERE NO MORE

I BEEN WORKING IN THIS FACTORY/ PRETTY CLOSE TO 15 YEARS I'VE SOME 
OF MY BEST FRIENDS' WOMEN/ STANDING IN A POOL OF TEARS I'VE SEEN A 
LOT OF KINFOLKS DYING/ I HAD A LOT OF BILLS TO PAY LORD, I'D GIVE 
THE SHIRT RIGHT OFFING' MY BACK/ IF I HAD THE NERVE TO SAY:

Repeat Chorus

THE FOREMAN IS A REGULAR SOB. AND THE NIGHT BOSS, HE'S A FOOL HE GOT 
HIMSELF A BRAND NEW FLATTOP HAIRCUT LORD, HE REALLY THINKS THAT'S 
COOL ONE OF THESE DAYS I'M GONNA BLOW MY TOP AND THERE'S GONNA BE 
HELL TO PAY I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEIR FACES WHEN I GET THE NERVE TO 
SAY

Repeat Chorus
