Merle Haggard — 5:01 Blues

[Chorus] I got these 5:01 blues Another workday is over Time to go home, but no one to go home to That whistle just blew bad news I'll punch out and put in Another long night again missing you I got these 5:01 blues [Verse 1] I used to watch that old clock on the wall Wishing I could make time fly But ever since you walked out on me Quitting time just make me want to cry [Chorus] I got these 5:01 blues Another workday is over Time to go home, but no one to go home to That whistle just blew bad news I'll punch out and put in Another long night again loving you I got these 5:01 blues [Verse 2] I could go out and find somebody new But I'd only spoil her fun My mind still says that it's time to love you When the clock says the workday is done [Chorus] I got these 5:01 blues Another workday is over Time to go home, but no one to go home to That whistle just blew bad news I'll punch out and put in Another long night again missing you I got these 5:01 blues [Chorus] I got these 5:01 blues Another workday is over Time to go home, but no one to go home to That whistle just blew bad news And I'll punch out and put in Another long night again missing you I got these 5:01 blues [Outro] Oh man, I got no place to go No one to go to
