5 O'Clock Somewhere Songtext
von Jimmy Buffett

The sun is hot
And that old clock is movin′ slow
And so am I
Workday passes like molasses in the wintertime, yeah, but it's July
Gettin′ paid by the hour, and older by the minute
Boss just put me over a limit
I'd love to call him somethin'
But I 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 12, but I don′t care
It's five o′clock somewhere
It's five o′clock in the urban stands, right?


Well, this lunch break
It's gonna take all afternoon and half the night
Tomorrow I know that there will 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′s gonna start right here
If the phone's for me
You can tell ′em I just sailed away

Pour me somethin' tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It′s only half past 12, but I don't care
Hello cowgirl
It′s five o'clock somewhere

I could pay off my tab
Pour myself in a cab
And be back to work before two
At a moment like this, you can't help but wonder
What would Jimmy Buffett do?
I′d go to Wrigley and buy you all a drink


Pour me somethin′ tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It's only half past 12, but I don′t care
Mitchell the cubby bear
Pour me somethin' tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane (here we go to sweater)
It′s only half past 12, but I don't care
The wonder bar
Oh, I don′t care
It's five o'clock somewhere

I guess we get it all spars picked out

Thank you, Alan Jackson
This is, this is too much
That′s all I got to say
For all of you ladies and gentlemen
Who wore your grass skirt to this event this evening
This song is for you
We′re going to the south pacific for a few minutes
