Alan Jackson:
The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow
And so am I
Workday pa**es like mola**es 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'
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
Well, this lunch break is gonna take all afternoon
Half the night
Tomorrow mornin', 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 Jamaican vacation's gonna start right here
If the phone's for me
You can tell 'em I just sailed away
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
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 Buffett - spoken:
Funny you should ask, Alan
Jimmy Buffett:
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"
Both:
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
Alan Jackson - spoken:
He don't care
Both:
I don't care
It's five o'clock somewhere
Spoken:
Buffett: What time zone am I on? What country am I in?
Jackson: It doesn't matter, it's five o'clock somewhere
Buffett: It's always on five in Margaritaville, come to think of it
Jackson: I heard that
Buffett: You've been there haven't you?
Jackson: Yes, sir
Buffett: I've seen your boat there
Jackson: I've been to Margaritaville a few times
Buffett: Alright, well that's good
Jackson: Stumbled my way back
Buffett: Okay, we just want to make sure you can keep it between the navigational beacons
Jackson: Between the buoys, I got it
Buffett: Alright, well it's five o'clock; let's go somewhere
Jackson: I'm ready; crank it up
Buffett: Let's get out of here
Jackson: I'm gone
