Lyrics

By 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
