| The sun is hot and that ol’clock is movin’slow
|
| And so am I Workday passes like molassas 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
|
| Well 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
|
| Ain’t had a day off now in over a year
|
| My Jamaican vacation is gonna start right here
|
| If the phones for me You can tell 'em I’ve just sailed away
|
| 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?
|
| Jimmy Buffett spoken:
|
| 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
|
| Alan: He don’t care
|
| I don’t care
|
| Together: It’s five o’clock somewhere
|
| Jimmy: What time zone am I on?
|
| What country am I in?
|
| Alan: It doesn’t matter
|
| It’s five o’clock somewhere
|
| Jimmy: It’s always on five in Margaritaville, come to think of it Alan: I heard that
|
| Jimmy: You’ve been there haven’t you?
|
| Alan: Yes, Sir
|
| Jimmy: I’ve seen your boat there
|
| Jimmy: All right.
|
| That’s good
|
| Alan: Stumbled my way back
|
| Jimmy: OK Just want to make sure you can keep it between the
|
| navigational beacons
|
| Alan: Between the bouys.
|
| I got it Jimmy: All right.
|
| It’s five o’clock.
|
| Let’s go somewhere
|
| Alan: I’m ready.
|
| Crank it up Jimmy: Let’s get out of here
|
| Alan: I’m gone |
