"9 to 5" is the title of a Grammy-winning, number-one song written and originally performed by Dolly Parton for the 1980 film comedy Nine to Five, starring Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, and Parton in her film debut.

The film's title song garnered Parton an Academy Award nomination and four Grammy Award nominations, winning her the awards for "Best Country Song" and "Best Country Vocal Performance, Female". In addition to appearing on the film soundtrack, the song was the centerpiece of Parton's 9 to 5 and Odd Jobs album, released in late 1980. The song was released as a single in November 1980 and reached number one on both the Billboard Country Chart and the Billboard Hot 100 in January and February of 1981, respectively. For a time, the song became something of an anthem for office workers in the U.S., and as recently as 2004 Parton's song ranked number seventy-eight on American Film Institute's "100 years, 100 songs".

Lyrics:

Tumble outta bed

And stumble to the kitchen

Pour myself a cup of ambition

Yawnin, stretchin, try to come to life

Jump in the shower

And the blood starts pumpin

Out on the streets

The traffic starts jumpin

And folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

Chorus:

Workin 9 to 5

What a way to make a livin

Barely gettin by

Its all takin

And no givin

They just use your mind

And they never give you credit

Its enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5, for service and devotion

You would think that i

Would deserve a fair promotion

Want to move ahead

But the boss wont seem to let me in

I swear sometimes that man is out to get me

Mmmmm...

They let your dream

Just a watch em shatter

Youre just a step

On the boss mans a ladder

But you got dream hell never take away

On the same boat

With a lot of your friends

Waitin for the day

Your shipll come in

And the tides gonna turn

An it's all gonna roll you away

2nd chorus:

Workin 9 to 5

What a way to make a livin

Barely gettin by

Its all takin

And no givin

They just use your mind

And you never get the credit

Its enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you

There's a better life

And you think that I would daunt you

Its a rich mans game

No matter what they call it

And you spend your life

Puttin money in his wollet

3rd chorus:

Workin 9 to 5

What a way to make a livin

Barely gettin by

Its all takin

And no givin

They just use you mind

And they never give you credit

Its enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

Fade:

9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you

There's a better life

And you dream that I would daunt you

Its a rich mans game

No matter what they call it

And you spend your life

Puttin money in his wollet
