In this song, the singer works hard all day to earn a living, but he comes alive at 5 O'Clock - quitting time. The Vogues were a vocal quartet from Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania. This is their best-known song, but they placed three others in the US Top 10: "You're The One" (#4, 1965), "Turn Around, Look At Me" (#7, 1968), and "My Special Angel" (#7, 1968, also a #1 Adult Contemporary hit).
