bartender it's not too soon,
just give me some elbow room
Oh, and I hope my blues it cures,
So draw me up that glass of Coors,
It's five o 'clock somewhere.
My baby packed up all her things,
Then took off her wedding rings,
Left me here with a heart that stings
I've just had one heck of a fall,
so don't you look at that
just throw me one cool and tall,
it's five o 'clock somewhere.
Now when you've had a love go sour,
it sure takes a lot of willpower
to wait around for that happy hour
just to get a little cheer.
I guess I'm the saddest guy in town,
my baby just tore our playhouse down,
so I'll just have me another round,
it's five o 'clock somewhere.
I really don't care about the time of day,
my misery is here to stay,
and I'll soon be on my way
So I'll just have another one or two,
I don't care what the other folks do
In old Shanghai or Timbuktu,
it's five o 'clock somewhere
In old Shanghai or Timbuktu,
it's five o 'clock somewhere
