Alan Jackson, Jimmy Buffett - It's Five O'Clock Somewhere lyrics

[Alan Jackson, Jimmy Buffett - 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 alright
I ain't had a day off now in over a year
Our Jamaican vacation's gonna
Start right here if the phone’s for me
You can tell 'em I just sailed away

And 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 Buffett do?
Funny you should ask Alan, 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 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 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
Alright, that's good
Stumbled all the way back
Okay, just wanna make sure you can
Keep it between the navigational beacons
Ha ha ha ha, between the buoys, I tell you
Alright 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
