  9 to 5 (Sheena Easton song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"9 to 5" is the title of a popular song recorded by Sheena Easton in 1980, becoming her first major hit.
The title of the song was changed to "Morning Train (9 to 5)" for its North American release to avoid confusion with the Dolly Parton song of the same name: "9 to 5".
Parton's song is about female liberation (as is the movie), while Easton's song is about a woman who waits at home all day for her man to come home from work.
