Verse 1:
E D E D
Up every morning just to keep a job
E D E D
I gotta fight my way through the hustlin' mob
E D E D
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
E D E
While another day goes down the drain
Chorus 1:
A D A D
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
A D A D
Noone owns a piece of my time
A D A D
And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes
A B
Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah
E D E D E D E D
Adaladee-hee, hee, yeah
Verse 2:
Tradin' my time for the pay I get
Livin' on money that I ain't made yet
Gotta keep goin', gotta make my way
But I live for the end of the day
Chorus 2:
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
Noone owns a piece of my time
And there's a long-haired girl who waits, I know
To ease my troubled mind, yeah
Adaladee-hee, hee, yeah
Verse 3:
In the shelter of her arms everythings OK
She talks and the world goes slippin' away (it slips away)
And I know the reason I can still go on
When every other is gone
Chorus 3:
In my five o'clock world she waits for me
Nothing else matters at all
'Cause every time my baby smiles at me
I know that its all worthwhile, yeah
Coda: [repeat to fade]
E D E D E D E D
Adaladee-hee, hee, yeah
