Take this job
and shove it
I ain't workin' here
no more
My woman done left
Took the reasons
that I been workin' for
You better not try
to stand in my way
as I'm a-walkin'
out the door
You can take this job
and shove it
I ain't workin' here
no more
Well I've been workin'
in this fact'ry
for now on fifteen years
And all that time
I watched my woman
drownin' in a pool of tears
I've seen
a lot of good folk die
And had a lot of bills to pay
I'd give the shirt
right off of my back
If I had the guts to say
Take this job
and shove it
I ain't workin' here
no more
My woman done left
Took all the reasons
I been workin' for
You better not try
to stand in my way
as I'm a-walkin'
out the door
You can take this job
and shove it
I ain't workin' here
no more
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
That sucker
He's gonna pay
I can't wait
to see their faces
when I get
the nerve to say
Take this job
and shove it
I ain't workin' here
no more
My woman done left
Took the reasons
that I been workin' for
You better not try
to stand in my way
as I'm a-walkin'
out the door
You can take this job
and shove it
I ain't workin' here
no more
Take this job
and shove it
