The foreman is a regular S.O.B.
And that's shockin', he's gonna pay it
Lord, he really thinks that's cool
You better not try to stand in my way
I've seen a lot of kinfolks dyin'
Take this job and shove it
When I'm walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
My woman's done left and took all of the reasons
I ain't workin' here no more
If I had the guts to say, say what?
You better not try to stand in my way
I ain't workin' here no more
And the night boss, he's a fool
When I'm walkin' out the door
Pretty close to 15 years
That I was workin' for
That I was workin' for
I ain't workin' here no more
He got himself a brand new flattop haircut
My woman done left and took all of the reasons
One of these days I'm gonna blow my top
I've seen some of my best friends women
Well, I've been working in this factory
I ain't workin' here no more
Take this job and shove it
Take this job and shove it
That I was workin' for
I ain't workin' here no more
When I'm walkin' out the door
Lord, I'd give the shirt right often my back
I had a lot of bills to pay
My woman done left and took all of the reasons
Drownin' in a pool of tears
You better not try to stand in my way
Well I can't wait to see their faces
Take this job and shove it
When I get the nerve to say, say what?
