Let's go somewhere
I could pay off my tab
All right, it's five o'clock
If the phones for me, you can tell 'em I've just sailed away
Pour myself in a cab and be back to work before 2
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
He don't care and I don't care
It's only half past twelve but I don't care
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It's five o'clock somewhere
It doesn't matter, it's five o'clock somewhere
You've been there haven't you?
This lunch break is gonna take all afternoon and half the night
You can keep it between the navigational beacons
Stumbled my way back
My boss just pushed me over the limit
Funny you should ask, Alan I'd say
At a moment like this, I can't help but wonder
I'm ready, crank it up
I'd like to call him somethin' but think I'll just call it a day
I ain't had a day off now in over a year
It's only half past twelve but I don't care
I heard that
It's five o'clock somewhere
Okay just want to make sure

It's only half past twelve but I don't care
Gettin' paid by the hour and older by the minute
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
My Jamaican vacation's gonna start right here
Pour me somethin' tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
The sun is hot and that ol' clock is movin' slow and so am I
I've seen your boat there
What would Jimmy Buffett do?
Yes, sir
And pour me somethin' tall and strong
I've been to Margarita Ville a few times

Between the bouys, I got it
Workday passes like molasses in wintertime but it's July
Pour me somethin' tall and strong
Pour me somethin' tall and strong
What time zone am I on? What country am I in?
Let's get out of here, I'm gone
All right, that's good
Tomorrow morning I know there'll be hell to pay, hey but that's all right
It's always on five in Margarita Ville, come to think of it
