It's Five O'clock Somewhere

The sun is hot and that ol' clock is movin' slow and so am I

Workday passes like molasses in wintertime but it's July

Gettin' paid by the hour and older by the minute

My boss just pushed me over the limit

I'd like to call him somethin' but think I'll just call it a day

Pour me somethin' 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 'em I've just sailed away

And pour me somethin' 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 2

At a moment like this, I can't help but wonder

What would Jimmy Buffett do?

Funny you should ask, Alan I'd say

Pour me somethin' tall and strong

Make it a hurricane before I go insane

It's only half past twelve but I don't care

Pour me somethin' tall and strong

Make it a hurricane before I go insane

It's only half past twelve but I don't care

He don't care and I don't care

It's five o'clock somewhere

What time zone am I on? What country am I in?

It doesn't matter, it's five o'clock somewhere

It's always on five in Margarita Ville, come to think of it

I heard that

You've been there haven't you?

Yes, sir

I've seen your boat there

I've been to Margarita Ville a few times

All right, that's good

Stumbled my way back

Okay just want to make sure

You can keep it between the navigational beacons

Between the bouys, I got it

All right, it's five o'clock

Let's go somewhere

I'm ready, crank it up

Let's get out of here, I'm gone
