Another day it's the same old grind
A tired body and a tired mind, yeah
The whistle blows and then I'm free
It's like an angel's a-callin' me

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound
I'm ready, I'm ready
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu
Aluma luma hu, aluma luma hu

Well, I swear that this old truck
It's like a golden chariot-it's got a
A short bed and a long loan
But it's surely gonna take me home, and

Its been a long day, Lord, and I've worked hard
But now I'm goin' to my final reward
It's your love and I just can't wait
To be standin' at the pearly gates, and

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound
I'm ready, I'm ready
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

Well, I'm gonna leave this weary work-day
world behind
When I look in your eyes, that heavenly
light gonna shine

Oh yeah

I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound, yeah
I'm ready, I'm ready
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound
I'm ready (I'm ready), I'm ready (I'm ready)
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound, yeah

It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound
I'm ready, I'm ready
It's five o'clock and I'm heaven bound

Shenandoah

Shenandoah is an American country music group founded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama in 1984 by Marty Raybon (lead vocals, acoustic guitar), Ralph Ezell (bass guitar, backing vocals), Stan Thorn (keyboards, backing vocals), Jim Seales (lead guitar, backing vocals), and Mike McGuire (drums, background vocals). Thorn and Ezell left the band in the mid-1990s, with Rocky Thacker taking over on bass guitar; Keyboardist Stan Munsey joined the line up in 1995. The band split up in 1997 after Raybon left. Seals, Munsey and McGuire reformed the band in 2000 with lead singer Brent Lamb, who was in turn replaced by Curtis Wright and then by Jimmy Yeary. Ezell rejoined in the early 2000s, and after his 2007 death, he was replaced by Mike Folsom. more »
