Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I better check my watch 'cause I believe it's about 5 o'clock somewhere

Isn't it, John?

[Verse 2]

The sun is hot and that old clock is moving slow

And so am I

The workday passes like molasses in wintertime

Hey, but it's July

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

[Verse 3]

So, 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 5 o'clock somewhere

[Verse 4]

Well, 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 alright

I ain't had a day off now, in over a year

My Texas vacation's gonna start right here

If the phone's for me, you can tell 'em I just sailed away

[Verse 5]

And 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

'Cause it's 5 o'clock somewhere

[Verse 6]

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 Buffet do?

[Verse 7]

I said, 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

[Verse 8]

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

I'm as tall as you now

Yeah, just about

I don't care, I don't care either

I don't care, you care?

It's 5 o'clock somewhere

[Verse 9]

5 o'clock here in Dallas, Texas

I heard that

If it's just like in Margaritaville, I know it's 5 o'clock

Margaritaville and Texas, hell they're the same thing, Alan

Yeah, just about it, down on the Chattahoochee

Now, we had a 5 o'clock too, buddy

Alright, well, only thing they can do is bring out the cheerleaders

I don't know what to do, now let's get out of here

That sounds good to me

It's 5 o'clock, we'd better get out of here

Here you go

Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only, Jimmy Buffet

Alan Jackson

I need to borrow that hat, man
