The sun is hot and that ol' clock is movin' slow And so am I Workday passes like molassas in wintertime But it's July Gettin' paid by the hour and older by a minute My boss just pushed me over the limit I'd like to call him somethin' But think I'll just call it a day (REFRÃO) Pour me somethin' 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 And half the night Tomorrow morning I know there'll be hell to pay Hey, but that's alright Ain't had a day off now in over a year My Jamaican vacation is gonna start right here If the phone's for me You can tell 'em I've just sailed away (REFRÃO) 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? Funny you should ask, Alan I'd say Pour me somethin' tall and strong Make it a hurricane before I go insane It's only half past twelve, but I don't care Pour me somethin' tall and strong Make it a hurricane before I go insane It's only half past twelve, but I don't care He don't care And I don't care It's five o'clock somewhere
