A Pirate Looks At 40 - Live/1990
Mother, mother ocean I've heard you call Wanted to sail upon your waters Since I was 3 feet tall You've seen it all You've seen it all
Watched the men who rode you Switch from sail to steam And in your belly you can hold the tresures Few have ever seen Most of 'em dream Most of 'em dream
Yes I am a pirate 200 years too late Canons don't thunder there's nothin' to plunder I'm in over-40 victim of fate Arriving too late Arriving too late
But I've done a bit of smugglin' I've run my share of grass Made enough money to buy Miami But I pissed it away so fast Never meant to last Never meant to last
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Well I have been drunk now for over two weeks Passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks But I've got to stop wishin Got to go fishin I'm down to rock bottom again Just a few friends Just a few friends (Nice to see all of my friends every year!) (Thank you, friends!)
Now I go for younger women Lived with several a while Though I ran em away they come back one day And I still can manage a smile Just takes a while Just takes a while
Mother mother ocean After all my years I've found My occupational hazard being My occupation's just not around I feel like I've drowned But I won't wear a frown Feel like I've drowned I'm gonna go check out Peachtree St. somewhere downtown
