My husband needs the words to the song "Take This Job And Shove It " by Johnny Paycheck. Does anyone know where on the Internet we might be able to get them.

From www.davidallancoe.com:

Take This Job and Shove It

By David Allan Coe

Chorus: TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AIN’T WORKING’ HERE NO MORE MY WOMAN DONE LEFT AND TOOK ALL OF THE REASONS I WAS WORKING FOR YOU BETTER NOT TRY TO STAND IN MY WAY/ WHEN I WALK OUT THE DOOR TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AIN’T WORKING’ HERE NO MORE

I BEEN WORKING IN THIS FACTORY/ PRETTY CLOSE TO 15 YEARS I’VE SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS’ WOMEN/ STANDING IN A POOL OF TEARS I’VE SEEN A LOT OF KINFOLKS DYING/ I HAD A LOT OF BILLS TO PAY LORD, I’D GIVE THE SHIRT RIGHT OFFING’ MY BACK/ IF I HAD THE NERVE TO SAY:

Repeat Chorus

THE FOREMAN IS A REGULAR SOB. AND THE NIGHT BOSS, HE’S A FOOL HE 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 THERE’S GONNA BE HELL TO PAY I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THEIR FACES WHEN I GET THE NERVE TO SAY

Repeat Chorus

Hi. My husband was thrilled this morning when I showed him the lyrics.

MrsSantaClaus: There is a retirement party at his company this week for several men including himself. My husband plays the guitar and often plays for little get-togethers. He thought this might be a fun song for he and the other guys to sing. He often changes the words of songs to match t
he event.

Powerhouse: I just looked at that site. Really neat. Thanks. I often wondered if there was a site (like Napster was for music) that we could get lyrics.

You're welcome, mommoo. I am hoping someone knows of a more complete site to share with us.
