- Johnny Paycheck performs "Take This Job and Shove It" at the Boar's Nest after he's caught in Rosco's celebrity speed trap... From the episode The Fugitive S4/E5 - Original air date: 11/3/81
Imagine having this song as your ringtone while working and when it rings your boss looks at you be hilarious😂😂
For some reason, I thought about this scene. That's that beauty of UA-cam. Even if an obscure scene from a TV show pops into your head, you can find it here, and relive the memories. To think I could have saved a fortune in VHS tapes and DVD's.
I love the look on Boss’ face every time Johnny says Take This Job and Shove it, his eyes get real wide and he made a very funny face
My favorite tv show! Such fun!
Roscoe should have sang this song on the episode where boss fired him
Which episode I mean Boss has fired Rosco many times when this show was on the air
Dukes of hazzard my favorite show of all time I mean who wouldn't want that orange klunker car pretty much kicks ass
The celebrity speed trap
During the show's second season, the show's writers began flirting with the idea of incorporating a "celebrity speed trap" into some of the episodes, as a means to feature top country stars of the day performing their hits. On its first couple of instances, the "Speed Trap" was featured early in the story, but for most of the cases, it was featured in the last few minutes of an episode, often used when the main story was running too short to fill episode time.
The "celebrity speed trap" feature was essentially similar: Aware that a big-name country star was passing through the area, Boss Hogg would order Rosco to lower the speed limit on a particular road to an unreasonable level (using a reversible sign, with one speed limit on one side and another, far lower, on the back), so that the targeted singer would be in violation of the posted limit. The singer would be required to give a free performance at the Boar's Nest in exchange for having their citations forgiven; the performer would then perform one of their best-known hits or other popular country music standard, while the Dukes, Boss, Rosco, Enos, Cletus, Cooter, and other patrons whooped and hollered in enjoyment of the performance. More often than not, the performer would give a sarcastic parting shot to Boss and Rosco.
Singers who were featured in the "speed trap" segments were:
Hoyt Axton
Donna Fargo
Freddy Fender
Doug Kershaw (on the original soundtrack)
The Oak Ridge Boys (twice)
Roy Orbison
Buck Owens
Johnny Paycheck (lip-syncing an original recording)
Mel Tillis
Dottie West
Tammy Wynette
Waylon Jennings (the show's narrator)
Honorable Mentions: Mickey Gilley, Loretta Lynn
Copied right outta Wikipedia I see
Yes i copied from Wikipedia only after see a toothpick in Johnny month and i also saw a net view with Johnny wish he didn't use the toothpick that day
What does that have to do with you stealing someone elses stuff
RebelRanger01 it's not stealing. Idiot
dave mustaine it is when you copy it word for word and take credit for it
Johnny is lucky he only got a speeding ticket.
How come they never had Hank Jr on Duke's? Could you imagine him singing Dixie on my mind there?
In the background, I can hear Bo yelling YEEE HAAA, and YAAA HOOO!!!!!!
I love what paycheck said.
"Take this job & shove it"was just another one of David Allen Cole's throw away songs that he gave Paycheck
One greatest classic hit song. Always enjoy Dukes of Hazard tv show. Have all seasons . Nice enjoy show never know Rosco stop of Way though his town.
Johnny got the twirks!!!
Looking back it’s interesting that one season later John Schneider and Tom Wopat would take Johnny’s words to heart and leave the show for most of the fifth season.
The look on boss hoggs face when Johnny says take this job and shove it
Donnie Eugene Lytle/AKA Johnny Paycheck is from my Hometown of Greenfield, Ohio. The song, Take This Job and Shove it was written By, David Allen Coe!

Greenfield Ohio is my hometown to and Donnie is my cousin lol he's a legend and thank you for commenting this
@Mark , That's pretty Kool. What's your last
name?
I liked it when the Oak Ridge Boys got caught in Boss Hogg's celebrity speed trap. Waylon Jennings then said that he'd bet that if Hank Williams was alive and got caught in Boss Hogg's celebrity speed trap the good folks of Hazzard County would probably never let him leave.
Boss Hogg & Rosco were surprised at hearing Johnny Paycheck's song which is the theme song of the 1981 comedy film of the same name.
This song was what I wanted to play when I hit the lottery! I always wondered why they never got John Denver on the series.
good old boss hogg i bet all these singers probley would have sang there for him if he would have just asked them. haha
Yeah but they would have wanted to be paid. This way Boss gets them to perform for free.
@@specterman2000 Yep. Why spend over $20,000 (That's probably a little low) for just one song? Not much profit in that considering Boss Hogg is charging $3.00 for beer to a handful of citizens.
I didn't know they had meth back then
Coke. He was a notorious coke fiend.
They definitely had amphetamines....how do you think they partied for days at a time..?
Good ol' Paycheck
Cool its the original.
Beer $5 a glass? A bit steep for back the don't ya think?
Johnny at his coked out best.
Definitely was tweakin lol
For a minute with the sound turned off I thought I was watching Lemmy on the Dukes of Hazzard.......time for bed I guess.
Good ol country song there.
Of all the singers on the show, they chose Johnny Paycheck to do a little acting? :)
Love it my song
Full band with only ONE guitar...WHERE are the other instruments!
His guitar was like Schroder's piano. A full orchestra came out of that little toy piano.
The rest were from a recorded tape.
Boss Hog reminds me Dub Taylor😂,, Rip brothers ✌️
Why did the guest singers on this show (at least some of them) lip-sync to their songs instead of singing them live? You can tell because there's other instruments besides a guitar, and also background singers. Roy Orbison was another.
Because it didn't add as much emphasis to the song because of its popularity; lip syncing was more a tune to just getting the full monty out.
My favorite song lyrics thank of my boss
Johnny had more hits than this one, but this is his signature song. It's a shame he died young though.
IKR.
I wish he could be with Us right now & sing Trump to fucking SHOVE IT😄🖕.
Am I right to surmise Johnny Paycheck wouldn't take kindly to President Trump today?
@@noahpartic7586 ~ Gheezus H. Khreist, you're a Biden moron??? Eff you and all your braindead kind.
Hey OP, Paycheck didn't exactly die young, he was in his 60's, but he did perhaps die a little too early.
@@moncorp1 🖕.
@@noahpartic7586 if anything, today he would be canceled by your lunatic clown mob.
5 dollar beer was highway robbery back then.
He’s from my home town. Greenfield Ohio. Small town. I know some ok’d timers who grew up with or knew him before and after he got big. Know one guy who snorted coke with him 😂
The only question I got is why are all these celebrities passing through Hazzard County? Wouldn't they be on airplanes and tour buses?
Was there a main reason bo and Luke Left the dukes of Hazzard for a little while just asking
Can you say COCAINE...
Country l 'like
Yeeeee Haw.
They wouldn’t show this today cause a bunch of DA’s and idiotic democrats be calling it racist because of the car. Yal need to grow up
Dame right it was a great show would love to see it again
Or you do...
WOKE CAN KISS MY A$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS THE DUKES
Why did he lip sync this ?
Every time I see one of these episodes with boss. Hoggs speep trap i thinlk these singers are would have just called their lawyer and told boss to check the laws and climb back on thier bus and drove away
👍🎣🤿⛵⛱️🏖️💯
FLORIDA
