Well the sun comes up as I say
Good morning darling
I won't be back
till it's going back down
There's 12 miles of barbwire
and these holes need digging
Girl if they didn't
I'd hang around
My time here is only worth
about 15 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 loving
that's overdue
So put your high heels on
and diamonds around your neck
You worry 'bout being ready by 5
I'll worry 'bout the rest
I'd give a paycheck
to a bar in Dallas
just to see you smile
I make my living from 9 to 5
but we're only living
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 'bout being ready by 5
I'll worry 'bout the rest
I'd give a paycheck
to a bar in Dallas
just to see you smile
I make my living from 9 to 5
but we're only living
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 your
High heels on
and diamonds around your neck
You worry 'bout being ready by 5
I'll worry 'bout the rest
I'd give a paycheck
to a bar in Dallas
just to see you smile
I make my living from 9 to 5
but we're only living
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 your
High heels on
and diamonds around your neck
