#4 in 1965.

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.
