Lyrics:
Mother, mother ocean, I've heard you call Wanted to sail upon your waters Since I was three feet tall You've seen it all, you've seen it all Watch the men who rode you Switch from sails to steam And in your belly you can hold the treasures Few have ever seen Most of them dream Most of them dream Yes, I am a pirate two hundred years too late Cannons don't thunder there's nothin' to plunder I'm an over forty 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 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 I go for younger women, lived with several awhile Though I ran them away, they come back one day And still could manage a smile It just takes awhile, just takes awhile Mother, mother ocean, after all my years I've found Occupational hazard be my occupations just not around Feel like I've drowned but all were frowned Feel like I've drowned
