Chorus:
No Chord                            C               G 
Take this job and shove it, I ain’t workin’ here no more

My woman done left and took all the reasons I was working for
    G                                      C              G
You better not try to stand in my way when I walk out the door
C                 G                 D               G
Take this job and shove it, I ain’t workin’ here no more

I've been workin’ in this factory for pretty close to fifteen years
  C                            G                           D
I seen some of my best friends women standin’ in a pool of tears
  G            C        G         C                     G
I seen some of kinfolks dyin that had a lot of bills to pay
C                              G                          D       G
Lord, I'd give the shirt right off-a my back if I had the guts to say


Chorus


That foreman is a regular SOB and the line boss, he’s a fool
He got a brand new flattop haircut, Lawd, he really thinks that’s cool
One of these days I’m gonna blow my top and there’s gonna be hell to pay
Lord I can’t wait to see their faces when I get the nerve to say

Chorus
