CHORUS 
  
Take this job and shove it 
I ain't workin' here no more 
My woman done left and took all the reasons 
I was workin' for 
You better not to try to stand in my way 
As I walk out the door 
Just take this job and shove it 
"Cause I ain't workin' here no more. 
  
I've been workin' in this fact'ry 
For nigh on fifteen years 
Seen some of my best friends' women 
Drownin' in a pool of tears 
Seen alot of my kinfolk die 
Had a lot of bills to pay 
Lord, I'd give the shirt right off of my back 
If I had the guts to say... 
  
REPEAT CHORUS 
  
The foreman is a regular low-down dog 
The line boss is a fool 
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 that sucker's going to pay 
Lord, I can't wait to see their faces 
When I get the nerve to say... 
  
REPEAT CHORUS
