| Yeah take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| Yeah my woman done left and she took all the reasons I was workin' for
|
| And you better not try to stand in my way when I’m a-walkin' out the door
|
| You can take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| Well I been workin' on the rooftops
|
| For damn near 15 years
|
| And all of this time, I watched my woman drownin' in a port of tears
|
| And I’ve seen a lot of my good friends die
|
| They had a lot of bills to pay
|
| And I’d give the shirt right off of my back, if I had the guts to say
|
| Say what?
|
| Yeah take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| Yeah my woman done left and she took all the reasons I was workin' for
|
| And you better not try to stand in my way when I’m a-walkin' out the door
|
| You can take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| I got some greasy, old jeans and some holes in my shirt
|
| Old beat-up bucket that I’m hopin’ll work
|
| I’m just a blue-collared guy, baptized in dirt
|
| And every day I left late an' always showed up first
|
| Got a finger for the foreman, he’s an S.O.B.
|
| And that line boss still bugs the hell out of me
|
| With his brand, new flat top and coffee-stained teeth
|
| Here’s my damn notice, I ain’t givin' two weeks
|
| Nah, ain’t enough money that’ll make me stay
|
| I got 'em talkin' to my back, but I’m still walkin' away
|
| As a matter of fact, I got this one thing to say
|
| You can take, you can shove it, get the hell out the way
|
| Say what?
|
| Yeah take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| Yeah my woman done left and she took all the reasons I was workin' for
|
| And you better not try to stand in my way when I’m a-walkin' out the door
|
| You can take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| Yeah 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
|
| Say what?
|
| Now take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| Yeah my woman done left and she took all the reasons I was workin' for
|
| And you better not try to stand in my way when I’m a-walkin' out the door
|
| You can take this job and shove it
|
| I’m not workin' here no more
|
| Yeah I wish I had a job to shove |
