[Verse 1]
Well, I tumble outta bed and stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
Yawn and stretch and try to come to life
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumping
Out on the streets, the traffic starts jumping
With folks like me on the job from nine to five

[Chorus]
Working nine to five, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
Working five to nine, you've got passion and a vision
'Cause it's hustlin' time, a whole new way to makе a livin'
Gonna change your life, do something that givеs it meaning
With a website that is worthy of your dreaming

[Verse 2]
Well, you've got dreams and you know they matter
Be your own boss, climb your own ladder
That moment's getting closer by the day
And you're in the same boat with a lotta your friends
Launching ideas you all believe in
The tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way

[Chorus]
Working five to nine, makin' something of your own now
And it feels so fine to build a business from your know-how
Gonna move ahead, and there's nothin' that you can't do
When you listen to that little voice inside you, yeah
Five to nine, you've got passion and a vision
'Cause it's hustlin' time, a whole new way to make a livin'
Gonna change your life, do something that gives it meaning
With a website that is worthy of your dreaming

[Outro]
Five to nine
You keep workin' workin' workin'
Workin' five to nine
'Til your dreams come true
Workin' five to nine
You keep dreamin' dreamin' dreamin'
Five to nine, five to nine
You can do it (Ooh)

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
