Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffet 5 O'clock somewhere Lyrics

The sun is hot and that ole clock is
moving slow and so am I
The work day passes like molasses in wintertime,
but it's July
I'm getting paid by the hour
and 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 they'll be hell to pay,
hey but that's all right
I haven'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

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
(twice)

Alan: He don't care
I don't care

Together: 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 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: Okay, well I just want to make sure you keep it between the navigational beacons.
Alan: deep sultry laugh hahaha! Keep it between the buoys. 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!
