It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere Songtext
von Adam Brand and The Outlaws

The sun is hot and that old clock is movin′ slow, and so am I
Work day passes like molasses in winter time, like it's July
I′m getting paid by the hour, older by the minute
My boss just pushed me over the limit
I'd like to call him something, I 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 and half the night
Tomorrow morning, I know there'll be hell to pay, but that′s all right
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, yeah


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

I could pay off my tab, put myself in a cab
And be back at work before two
At a moment like this, I can't help but wonder
What would Jimmy Buffett do?

He′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

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
And we don′t care

It′s five o'clock somewhere
It′s five o'clock somewhere
It′s five o'clock somewhere
It′s five o'clock somewhere
