Alan Jackson
It's 5 O'clock Somewhere lyrics
Songwriters: Brown, Jim; Rollins, Donald Edmond
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
Chorus:
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 is gonna start right here
If the phones for me
You can tell 'em I've just sailed away
Chorus:
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
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
Alan: I've been to Margaritaville a few times
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
