song lyrics  It s Five O Clock Somewhere lyrics

The sun is hot and that old clock is movin slow,
An so am I.
Work day passes like molasses in wintertime,
But it s July.
I m gettin paid by the hour, an older by the minute.
My boss just pushed me over the limit.
I d like to call him somethin ,
I think I ll just call it a day.

Pour me somethin tall an 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.

Oh, this lunch break is gonna take all afternoon,
An half the night.
Tomorrow mornin , 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.
Our Jamaican vacation s gonna start right here.
Hit the phones for me,
You can tell em I just sailed away.

An pour me somethin tall an 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,
An be back to work before two.
At a moment like this, I can t help but wonder,
What would Jimmy Buffet do?

Funny you should ask that because I d say:
Pour me somethin tall an strong,
Make it a "Hurricane" before I go insane.
It s only half-past twelve but I don t care.

Pour me somethin tall an strong,
Make it a "Hurricane" before I go insane.
It s only half-past twelve but I don t care.
He don t care.
I don t care.
It s five o clock somewhere.

What time zone am on? What country am I in?
It doesn t matter, it s five o clock somewhere.
It s always on five in Margaritaville, come to think of it.
Yeah, I heard that.
You been there haven t you.
Yessir.
I seen your boat there.
I ve been to Margaritaville a few times.
All right, that s good.
Stumbled all the way back.
OK. Just wanna make sure you can keep it between the navigational beacons.
Bring the booze, I tell you.
All right. Well, it s five o clock. Let s go somewhere.
I m ready, crank it up.
Let s get out of here.
I m gone.
Let s get out of here.
