|
The sun is hot and that old clock,
|
is movin' 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.
|
|
[Instrumental]
|
|
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.
|
|
[Jimmy:]
|
Funny you should ask Alan, 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.
|
|
[Together:]
|
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.
|
|
[Alan:]... but he don't care, I don't care.
|
Together
|
It's five o'clock somewhere.
|
|
[Talking:]
|
[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 time for Margaritaville, come to think of it.
|
[Alan:] I heard that.
|
[Jimmy:] You've been there haven't ya?
|
[Alan:] Yes sir!
|
[Jimmy:] I've seen your boat there.
|
[Alan:] I've been to Margaritaville a few times.
|
[Jimmy:] Alright, that's good.
|
[Alan:] Stumbled on my way back.
|
[Jimmy:] OK, well I just want to make sure you keep it between the navigational beacons.
|
[Alan:] hahaha! Keep it between the bouys. I got it!
|
[Jimmy:] Alright, well 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!
