Dedication: To Greg Blackwell, Marshall Leib, Billy Sherrill, Johnny Paycheck and all the people involved in making the motion picture Take this job and shove it
TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT TOO
WHERE THE SUN DON'T NEVER SHINE

THIS AIN'T THE FIRST JOB I EVER QUIT
AND I KNOW IT WONT BE MY LAST
PAYCHECK, WHO KNOWS AFTER TODAY
YOU MAY BE A THING OF THE PAST
IM SO TIRED OF WORKING LIKE A DOG
THERE'S GOTTA BE A BETTER WAY
BILLS, HELL IF I THOUGHT ABOUT BILLS
ID OF NEVER HAD THE NERVE TO SAY

THIS OLD BREWERIES BATTEN ME DOWN
ITS THE SAME THING BEER AFTER BEER
FORMAN THAT'S SURE, SOME PROMOTION
THEY SHOULD'VE NAMED ME FOOL OF THE YEAR
I'VE LOST MORE THAN A COUPLE OF FRIENDS
ID OF MUCH RATHER GOTTEN A RAISE
BOSS, HELL I DON'T WANNA BE BOSS
WORKING THESE PEOPLE LIKE SLAVES
