"5 O'Clock Friends" Created by Kelly & Walker (Intro) (Rhythmic walking beat: tap... tap... tap... tap) Verse 1: The Arrival Click... goes the lock... And the door opens wide. (Pause) I’ve got a wiggle... That I just can’t hide! Owner is home... And the work day is done. (Pause) Now it is time... For my favorite run! Smiling and jumping... I’m spinning 'round. (Pause) Happy little paws... On the hardwood ground. Chorus: The Hook My 5 o'clock friends... (Pause) My 5 o'clock friends... (Pause) I’m walking and seeing... My 5 o'clock friends! With a spring in my step... On the sidewalk today. (Pause) All of my buddies... Are coming to play! Verse 2: The Dog Run Harness and leash... I’m all buckled in. (Pause) Out of the building... With a Frenchie grin. Straight to the Dog Run... For a quick little pee. (Pause) That's where I go... Every morning, you see! But now it's different... It’s 5 o'clock. (Pause) We’re going much further... Around the whole block! Verse 3: The Scent Journey I’m marking the trees... And the shrubs on the way. (Pause) Sniffing the hydrants... To start off my day. Short little legs... And a big happy heart. (Pause) The best part of walking... Is the 5 o'clock start! Verse 4: The 5 O'Clock Friends I see a Golden... With hair long and gold. (Pause) I see a Great Dane... So brave and so bold. Some have long legs... Some have long hair. (Pause) But everyone’s happy... In the 5 o'clock air! If we could talk... We’d say "How do you do?" (Pause) "It's 5 o'clock, friend... I’m so glad to see you!" Bridge: The Evening Sunset Thirty long minutes... Have gone flying by. (Pause) The sun starts to dip... In the evening sky. Then come the bells... From the church on the hill. (Pause) Ding-dong... ding-dong... The neighborhood's still. Six o'clock ringing... The walk's almost through. (Pause) But my heart is so full... Just being with you. Outro: The Homage Walking back home... On my tired little paws. (Pause) Just because... Just because! Say hello... And wag goodbye... (Pause) Until tomorrow... Until tomorrow. (Final soft bell sound: Ding)
