It's Five O'Clock Somewhere - Jimmy & The Parrots
Written by:D. Rollins/J. Brown
The sun is hot and that 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 could call him something
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 half the night
Tomorrow morning I know there'll be hell to pay
But hey 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
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
I don't care
It's five o'clock somewhere
