-- OR -- 
The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow ... an' so am I
Work day passes like molasses in wintertime .. but it's July
I'm gettin' paid by the hour, an' 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 somethin' tall an' 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 .. an' half the night
Tomorrow mornin' I know there'll be hell to pay ... hey 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
Hit the 'phones for me ... you can tell 'em I just sailed away
An' Pour me somethin' tall an' 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
BREAK
I could pay off my tab, pour myself in a cab an' be back to work before two
At a moment like this ... I can't help but wonder ... what would Jimmy Buffet do?
Funny you should ask that because I'd say
An' Pour me somethin' tall an' strong make it a hurricane before I go insane
It's only half-past twelve but I don't care ...
An' Pour me somethin' tall an' strong make it a hurricane before I go insane
It's only half-past twelve but I don't care ... and I dont care .. its 5 clock somewhere
