Five O'Clock World:The Vogues.
#4 in 1965.
(Capo 2nd fret.)
INTRO:
Oh..de..lay..ee..hee..hee..hee..hee..hee,yeah(x2)
#1.
Up every mornin' just to keep a job,
I gotta fight my way through the hustling mob.
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain,
While another day goes down the drain. Yeah, yeah.
CHORUS:#1.
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows,
No one owns a piece of my time.
And theres a five o'clock me inside my clothes,
Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah.
REPEAT INTRO:
#2.
Tradin' my time for the pay I get,
Livin' on money that I ain't made yet.
Gotta keep goin' tryin' to make my way,
While I live for the end of the day.(Yeah, yeah.)
CHORUS:#2.
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows,
No one owns a piece of my time.
And there's a long-haired girl who waits, I know,
To ease my troubled mind, yeah.
REPEAT INTRO:
#3.
In the shelter of her arms everything's OK.
She talks and the the world goes slippin' away.
And I know the reason I can still go on,
When every other reason is gone, yeah, yeah.
CHORUS:#3.
#4.
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 thats it's all worthwhile. Yeah.
REPEAT INTRO:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
