"5 To 9" lyrics

Well, the sun comes up, as I say, "Good morning, darlin'"
I won't be back 'til it's going back down
There's twelve miles of barbed wire and these holes need digging
Girl if they didn't, I'd hang around
My time here is only worth about fifteen an hour
Pennies on the dollar for my time with you
Let's make up for what we missed, with what little day that's left
There's a lot of lovin' that's overdue

So put your high heels on and diamonds around your neck
You worry about being ready by 5, I'll worry about the rest
I'd give a paycheck to a bar in Dallas just to see you smile
I make my livin' from 9 to 5, but we're only livin' from 5 to 9

I'll clock enough by lunchtime to buy your dinner
The rest of the hours oughta cover half the tab
If I'm gonna sweat in the Texas sun for what feels like forever
I'd say we deserve the best night we've had

So put your high heels on and diamonds around your neck
You worry about being ready by 5, I'll worry about the rest
I'd give a paycheck to a bar in Dallas just to see you smile
I make my livin' from 9 to 5, but we're only livin' from 5 to 9

Just you and I, 5 to 9
I wanna put in that overtime, 5 to 9
Sip on that red, red wine, 5 to 9
It's you all night with

High heels on and diamonds around your neck
You worry about being ready by 5, I'll worry about the rest
I'd give a paycheck to a bar in Dallas just to see you smile
I make my livin' from 9 to 5, but we're only livin' from 5 to 9

Just you and I, 5 to 9
I wanna put in that overtime, 5 to 9
Wanna sip on that red, red wine, 5 to 9
It's you all night with
High heels on and diamonds around your neck
