Johnny Paycheck was the stage name of Donald Eugene Lytle (May 31, 1938 – February 19, 2003), a country music singer and Grand Ole Opry member most famous for recording the David Allan Coe song "Take This Job and Shove It".

I'm a song and dance man come and gather round me and clap your hands
Bring your tips boys put them in the old tin can
Buy me a drink boy and I'll do a little bit of the old soft shoe
Put a little something in the kitty and I'll sing and dance for you

Me I'll play a number you get to buck and wing
I'll sing a sad song if you want to hear me sing
Just name your pleasure and dig down in your jeans
My body needs a beverage and my guitar need some strings

I'm a song and dance man come and gather round me and clap your hands
Bring your tips boys put them in the old tin can
Buy me a drink boy and I'll do a little bit of the old soft shoe
Put a little something in the kitty and I'll sing and dance for you

Well I caught pneumonia walking in the pouring rain
But I found heaven in a little room in New Orleans
A Cajun woman she loved me till I got strong
Then I caught a freight train right out of her heart and I wrote about it in a song

I'm a song and dance man come and gather round me and clap your hands
Bring your tips boys put them in the old tin can
Buy me a drink boy and I'll do a little bit of the old soft shoe
Put a little something in the kitty and I'll sing and dance for you

I'm a song and dance man come and gather round me and clap your hands
I'm a song and dance man come and gather round me and clap your hands
I'm a song and dance man come and gather round me and clap your hands
I'm a song and dance man come and gather round me and clap your hands
