It's 5 O'clock Somewhere lyrics by Allan Jackson And Jimmy Buffett
The sun is hot andthat old clock is moving slow
and so am I
Work day passes like molasses
in winter time, but it's July
Getting paid by the hour
and older by the minute
My boss just pushed me
over the limit
I'd like to call him something
I think I'll just call it a day
Pour me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane
before I go insane
It's only half past twelve
but I don't care,
It's five o'clock somewhere
This lunch break is gonna take
all afternoon, and half the night
Tomorrow morning
I know there'll be hell to pay
hey but that's all right
I ain't had a day off now
in over a year
My Jamaican vacation's
gonna start right here
If the phone's for me
you can tell them
I just sailed away
And pour me
something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane
before I go insane
It's only half past twelve
but I don't care,
It's five o'clock somewhere
I could pay off my tab,
pour myself in a cab
and be back to work before two
At a moment like this
I can't help but wonder
what would Jimmy Buffett do
I'd say
Pour me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane
before I go insane
It's only half past twelve
but I don't care
Pour me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane
before I go insane
It's only half past twelve
but I don't care
No, I don't care
It's five o'clock somewhere
