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
